5.0 out of 5 stars Great cutting board December 15, 2010

Yes, it's just a wood cutting board, but the softness of the wood maintains the sharpness of the knife blade longer AND when you clean it under warm water, it gives off the delightful odor of fresh cut wood.

i got the knives and just had to get the cutting board too. i am not disappointed. the cutting board is the best i have ever used. the wood is a little soft, and it absorbs colors, but i just love it. i have used a variety of woods and other unfortunate choices. my last cutting board was bamboo and i hated the hardness of it. this one is perfect. thick, flat, and very functional. the softness of the wood helps to keep the blades sharp & it seems to make cutting easier.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best cutting board ever December 20, 2010

I had wanted to purchase a nice cutting board that would complement high quality cutlery and I can confidently say I found it in the Shun Hinoki cutting board. This cutting board is the cadillac of all cutting boards. What is especially nice about this particular board is the fact that knives will stay sharper longer when used on Hinoki wood as opposed to other materials, such as (bamboo, plastic, glass, pine...etc). I was super blessed to have an opportunity to buy two of these boards on sale. I can certainly understand someone voicing reluctance to spend $150 on just a cutting board, however if you factor in the time you will save by not sharpening your knives as often while using this board as opposed to other cutting boards, than the price is justified for the $150 cost. Remember time is money.
