Chopping blocks are the only blocks that will not break saws or be turned into an item by saws, effectively making them the only way to push mobs into saws with any consistency. When crafted chopping blocks will be "clean" and have a tile like texture, they can be converted into "dirty" chopping blocks via direct exposure to blood from saws. Chopping blocks will provide a damage boost when mobs are suffocated in saws by being pushed with a chopping block, this will also increase the drop rate of heads.

Chopping Blocks are an aesthetic block that can also be used in mob traps to increase the damage saws cause. Pictured right is the "Bloodied" version of the block, which is acquired when a mob's "blood" (particle effects that are cast off when a mob takes damage) land on a clean chopping block.

While completely optional, chopping blocks increase the chance that mobs capable of dropping skulls will in fact do so upon death when killed with saws while being suffocated by a chopping block (bloodied or clean). Creepers, Skeletons, Zombies and Withers fall into this category. This can be handy in the case of skeletons, due to the fact that their skulls can be ground down into more bonemeal.

Chopping blocks are one of the few non-wooden blocks that, when placed upon the cutting surface of a saw, will not break the saw.
