Bamboo Cutting Board Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This particular board is made with the end-grain facing up - a must for those of you who have an investment in your cutting utensils. With the end grain up, your knives will not "cut" the board rather, they'll "slip between" the fibers thus protecting the ever important sharp edge of your knives.
I have three sizes of these bamboo boards and they are quite striking to look at with the two-tone colors. They are heavier than you'd think although slightly lighter than the same sized wood boards. I recommend you use food-grade mineral oil or bees wax on the board before you use it as the bamboo will absorb some coloring from items you cut. I also found that acidic foods will also stain the bamboo, even after treating the board first. That aside, these are very nice boards, thick and sturdy. Although I haven't had them long enough to say they won't crack, they seem very well constructed and don't have a grain pattern like wood so likely won't split like a wood board can do if you let it spend too much time soaking and/or let it dry out too much.
I like them and hope they give the years of service I expect from them.

Naturally antimicrobial end-grain bamboo will not dull knives, absorb water, crack or peel. Bamboo's high-density composition is stronger than hardwood and fully sustainable as a naturally- replenishing resource. Harder than maple, first-grade end-grain bamboo makes a durable, beautiful cutting board. Handcrafted. Hand wash. Imported.
