Product Description

Product Description

Our premium select grade of bamboo is 18% harder than rock maple, making it a superior material for cutting boards and home products. And, it's a totally sustainable natural resource. After harvesting bamboo it grows back quickly since the root system is so dense. Our bamboo products are handcrafted using small flattened bamboo strips glued and pressed together with approved food grade glue, no paints or stains are used. Through a heating process, the natural sugar in the Bamboo caramelizes and turns brown to create these beautiful colors. These cutting boards can simply wash off with soap and water. Oiling it with mineral oil will keep it looking new. Bamboo cutting boards make an attractive chopping surface.

5.0 out of 5 stars Chop, chop, February 10, 2008

By	Jon K. Peck "jkp" (Chicago) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought this mainly because it seemed such a magnificent hunk of wood, but I was pleasantly surprised at how much better it works for chopping than my previous board. Its solid mass really improves the effectiveness of the knife.

Two small downsides: it shows knife marks more than I expected, and it doesn't quite lie perfectly flat on the counter. A few small rubber feet on the bottom would help.

2.0 out of 5 stars large and sturdy but a design flaw, January 15, 2008

By	John Doe (NY, NY) - See all my reviews

This was a large and heavy chopping board that I had always wanted. But after 3 months of light usage, I've found a crack running through the side near the center area of the board. The board is made of strips of bamboo woods laid down and glued in an uniform alignment instead of staggering them(think of brick layering).
