my vintage genuine end grain butcher block cutting board has a crack running a ways along a glue line.
My plan is to saw cut the crack open (with the cutting board on edge on my table saw)
then
let the C.B. dry out some more,
then
fill the crack with epoxy
Making a partial cut and filling the kerf, leaves an obvious repair.
Cutting the entire length and regluing, would restore your board leaving no visible repair.
Either choice is "functional".
The latter choice, is functional and pleasing to the eye.

I will cut it I to the 2 pieces before our 3-4 week holiday so that the mating faces dry fully before being glues
