Here is a picture that helps explain Edge (side) grain vs End Grain.

End-grain and Edge (side) grain: What do they mean for Cutting Boards? The Cutting Boards and Butcher Blocks are made with one of two types of cutting surfaces edge (side) gain and end grain. When you are looking into buying a cutting board, its good to consider which type you’re getting because each of the two surfaces affects a board’s appearance and its effect on knives.... Edge (Side) grain cutting boards: The surface of an edge (side) grain cutting board looks similar to the side of a 2x4. These cutting boards are made from strips of hard wood, like maple or cherry. The strips are arranged side by side and grafted together. As a result, the cutting surface of this type of boards consists of only the edge (side) of each strip of wood. A good reason to select a board with edge (side) grain construction is to see the beautiful maple or cherry figure on the cutting surface. A downside, however, of an edge (side) grain surface is that, after long-term use, it can show cuts and scratches more plainly than an end-grain board. End grain cutting boards: The surface of an end grain cutting board resembles the end of a 2x4. That is where it gets the name end grain. A board like this is composed of many short pieces of hard wood. These pieces are arranged vertically and grafted together side by side. Together the ends of all the pieces make up the cutting surface. An end grain cutting boards has the benefits of being both attractive and easy on your knives. This cutting board construction creates a distinctive looking checkerboard with a wide variety of different effects. An end grain board also has a very fibrous cutting surface, so a knife’s edge is likely to sink into the wood fibers while you are cutting and not cut them off like a edge (side) grain board would. This type of board also does not show scratches as easily. With care and attention, your board will last you for many many years. I do hope this explanation helps you in your decision in buying a cutting board.
