STURDY AND DURABLE board that is slightly thicker than average cutting boards, making it super sturdy and great for all different types of foods. Heavy enough that the board does not move around while you cut, making this a great dependable and sturdy piece of equipment to have in your kitchen.

A little bit of maintenance to keep the board dry will go a long way to ensure that the board lasts a long time with minimal care. BAMBOO is one of the strongest natural materials that rivals steel for tensile strength, but is kinder to knives than most synthetic surfaces because it will not dull your blades. The tight grain of bamboo wood means it does not absorb liquids or stain easily and it also has natural antimicrobial properties which prevents bacteria growth. To top if off, you can feel good about using the board as bamboo is an eco-friendly sustainable resource that grows quickly enough to replenish. REVERSIBLE AND MULTIPURPOSE - It's completely reversible, and is finished the same on both sides so you can use only one side for cutting work, and save the other side for flipping over as a serving tray. Its "not too large, not too small" size makes it easy to hide in the kitchen and handy to haul out when needed to serve your Rib Eye roast on its smooth surface to make for an elegant presentation. Its built-in handle also makes it easy to carry around without straining your hand and fingers and its edges are perfectly sanded and smooth with no harsh wood for extra safety. PRETTY AND FUNCTIONAL - The two tone design with its smooth 'knife-mark proof' cutting surface makes this cutting board very beautiful - almost too beautiful to use. Definitely adds a touch of style to your kitchen, and is a perfect gift idea, so consider buying an extra board for that special someone in your life.
