Product Description

Amazon.com Review

This sturdy butcher-block board is made from select, non-endangered, self-sustaining American hardwood. Made by Catskill Craftsmen, of New York, this board has smoothly rounded edges and a channel along the edge that's deep enough to hold any juices released during cutting. The wood won't splinter or dull knives. Take good care of the wood by hand washing and occasionally coating with butcher-block oil. --Dale Steinke

1.0 out of 5 stars Fuzzy board...not smooth!, May 9, 2003

I was searching for a cutting board in a good size that comes with a groove, came across this and according to the reviews, everything seems positive. Boy, was I disappointed!

I've carefully oiled the board with mineral oil almost everyday for the first week I bought the board, and wash it with mild soap and water as instructed. However, there seems to be fuzz (or rather splinters!) on both surfaces of the board. I tried to oil the board again, but it still seems dry (though it has never been used). I couldn't risk having my food stuck with splinters from the board, and therefore had never gotten around to use it. I'd rather go with a Henckels board anytime.

A waste of money, would not recommend.

This is a very nice piece of wood. It looks great and works much better than those plastic things that slide all over the place. *And the insert with the board said not to worry about bacteria as the plastic ones were actually better at harboring unwanted bacteria! Very reassuring and a nice board!

Where else can you get a high quality wooden cutting board of this size for such a great price. It works so much better then those cheap platic cutting boards, plus the channel keeps any juice from flowing onto your counter. I'd like to see a plastic cutting board do that. I highly reccomend this low price high quality board.
