Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
With a theme of pigs going on in my kitchen, I just had to buy this when I saw it. My grandmother use to have one in her kitchen, but this one is a modern version of it. The bamboo is beautiful and I haven't actually used it to cut on. It makes a lovely wall hanging. It's thick and smooth, too. Really nice!

Totally Bamboo\'s Pig Cutting Board is light, super strong, totally green\' and all too fun.It is 5/8 of an inch thick, which means that it\'s maneuverable and easy to store. It\'s also durable; it offers tri-ply, cross laminate construction with a specially formulated high temperature adhesive. What more, this beautiful board is made of strong, eco friendly bamboo. The benefits of using bamboo are numerous. For example: bamboo is 16 percent harder than maple, yet easy on your knives, it\'s naturally anti-microbial and it\'s eco friendly; it holds the promise of a sustainable, cost effective, and ecologically responsible alternative to the widespread clear cutting of our old growth forests. Totally Bamboo uses organically grown Moso bamboo, so you need not worry about harmful pesticides or fertilizers. Plus, this bamboo is not a food source, or a habitat, for the Giant Panda. Totally good for you and totally good for the environment. What more? Board is easy to maintain. Wash with warm water and occasionally use Totally Bamboo\'s Revitalizing Oil to extend life and keep it looking beautiful. Board measures 15-inch by 10-inch by 3/8-inch.

I received the board with the same part number. Unfortunately, it measures 13"x7.5", well off from the claimed size of "16.8 x 9.2 x 1 inches".

Totally Bamboo's Sahara cutting board is designed with the epicurean kitchen in mind.16% harder than maple, Bamboo makes a superior material for cutting boards. The Sahara cutting board is handcrafted using flattened strips of cured Bamboo bonded together with the highest rated, US laboratory tested and certified, formaldehyde-free adhesive specifically developed for food contact surfaces. Sahara's size, 16.75 x 9.25, makes it perfect for any chopping, slicing or serving need. Sahara's unique look is created using the end grain or cross-section of the bamboo pole.Small sections of the end grain are set in opposing directions creating the parquet design.No stains or paint are used to create the two-tones of Sahara. The light tone is the Natural color of the Moso Bamboo and the scrumptious Honey shade is created in a very specialized heating process which caramelizes the natural sugar in the wood.These colors are permanent and will not fade or wash out.Care: wash with warm water and mild detergent and occasionally wipe with mineral oil (Do not clean in the dishwasher). An Ecological wonder, Bamboo is a grass that grows to a harvestable height of 60 feet in 3 to 5 years.It has an extensive root system that continually develops new shoots thus not requiring replanting making it an incredible self-renewing resource and a brilliant alternative to the wide spread clear cutting of our world's hard wood forests.Do the world a favor¿ Do Bamboo

Wusthof 2036 Bamboo Cutting Board Review

Wusthof 2036 Bamboo Cutting Board
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I received this Wuestof cutting board as a gift, along with some Wuesthof knives and kitchen shears. (if you would like to read my reviews for these items, click on "see all my reviews".) It's a good combo; I only had plastic cutting boards, and the wooden ones better for your knives. Plastic ones (and don't get the really hard ones)are useful for cutting meat, and putting into the dishwasher; but the wood looks nicer. Also,it is made from bamboo, a renewable resource, and not from petrochemicals.
This 8X12 cutting board is just right size for slicing, dicing and chopping up a few veggies. The Wuesthof 4.5 inch "multi-prep cook's knife" works very well for this. The Wuesthof logo is imprinted on the front side, but I don't see "Emeril" on it anywhere. The back side of the board is a cutting board,too, but it also has four rubber "feet" which add stability when used right-side-up. Groves on either side provide easy hand-holds. Flip it right-side up, pair it with a cheese knife, and you're good to go for serving cheese.
Good price/value. Treat it well--don't use the dishwasher or serrated knives, condition it with mineral oil from time to time. Highly recommend.

Totally Bamboo Kalahari Parquet End Grain Cutting Board Review

Totally Bamboo Kalahari Parquet End Grain Cutting Board
Average Reviews:

The 13.8 x 11 board is smooth like glass, strong, yet lightweight. The surface looks like a spot drawing. I've never seen a bamboo board so I guess that's what bamboo is supposed to look like. The board is non-porous; water runs off in big droplets. I covered it with mineral oil as the directions stated and the surface is still non-porous and looks about the same color. I've had the board a few weeks and used it a few times and it seems to be well constructed. Totally Bamboo sent the cutting board wrapped in a pretty straw bow.

Architec Acacia Gripper Raw Edge Cutting Board, 11 by 17-Inch Review

Architec Acacia Gripper Raw Edge Cutting Board, 11 by 17-Inch
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I like the raw edge trend and thought this cutting board would make a good presentation piece for cheeses. In person it's less of a true raw edge and more that one edge is distressed or sanded down. So it doesn't have the same rugged, earthy visual impact as pictured. Also there was a bit of a putty repair on the surface which is fairly obvious. However it is a solid board, the wood is good quality and it doesn't slip. So if you're looking for a utilitarian cutting board this is fine, but if you're searching for more of a unique statement piece it's not a great choice, the detail work just isn't there.

Totally Bamboo Butcher Block, Large Review

Average Reviews:

My compliments to Totally Bamboo and Amazon for carrying such a quality product - I highly recommend it. The shipment arrived promptly, and the block was well packed and protected. When I opened the box, I couldn't believe how beautiful - and brawny - this block is. The pictures don't do it justice. It is extremely well made - tightly crafted, very smooth and silky to the touch, substantial, but not too heavy to easily lift and move. The legs are just the right height and the rubber feet hold it nicely in place. It gives a very satisfying "thunk" when chopping - and dicing, slicing and mincing are a joy. Very easy care - wipe with hot, soapy water or vinegar and treat with wood oil as needed. Goodbye, wimpy acrylic and rough wood............hello beautiful bamboo! I give it a big TEN and will be purchasing more Totally Bamboo products.
Edited to add: Since purchasing this chopping block, I have discovered a wonderful product for treating wood and cast iron. It's a food grade mix of beeswax and mineral oil and can be found on eBay, sold by Wooden Wonders. Name is Beeswax Butcher Block Conditioner. It's thick and has a firm texture, meaning more beeswax and less oil. Great product!

Out of the Woods of Oregon 11-Inch Round Cutting Board Review

I bought this because it is made from real wood and from Oregon, not imported. I like the litte size. Very cute round and great drip edge! The drip edge is very deep. I don't see how I can make a mess with it.
I like this size for quick chops. Yes, you can see some marks from the knife, but that is better than on the counter. Easy to clean and drys up quick.
I look forward to buying other pieces. I checked out the manufacturers website and they have a very large offering of products. I bought a bread knife and a larger rectangular board as well. With the 4-3 offer, I got a left handed bread knife for my brother in law's xmas gift!
Did I mention, it feels like you are using a work of art? The wood is beautiful, very rich in tone and color. The natural variation is gorgeous.

Live green- be green. Out of the woods of Oregon is proud of our green heritage.Long before it was fashionable, we were concerned with conserving our resources and caring for our environment.Our wood products are made in Eugene, Oregon using Oregon red alder.Red alder is a sustainable hardwood that flourishes in the lush climate of the coastal pacific northwest.Red alder is re-planted as it is harvested ensuring the sustainability of this beautiful resource for decades to come.Of equal importance to us, is the wise use of the wood.Much of our wood comes from local furniture manufacturers because we are able to use their short and narrow pieces (fall down) to create many of our products.Short boards, not long enough for their use, are used to make our cutting and serving boards.Very narrow pieces of wood are used to make our spice racks and push pulls.We even use our saw dust to heat many of our buildings.We offer an extensive line of cutting boards for basic kitchen use as well as a wide assortment of specialty boards great for serving dips, pate's, cheeses, and oils.We are proud to be wood workers in Eugene, Oregon and we hope you will enjoy using our products as much as we enjoy making them.
