Maybe 3 pieces total. 2 x 15" x 30" and 1 x 18" x 30" . Don't get too excited yet I don't even have a stove at the moment. |

Anywho, I love the look of wood cutting boards but not actually using them. I hate it when people cut up raw meat on them, and prefer to use the soft plastic boards with non-skid rubber edges that, when you're done, go straight into the dishwasher. |

Oh, and if any of you have a glass cutting board, take it out into your driveway and smash it into bits. They are evil, will absolutely ruin your knives, and are evil. Whenever I go to somebody's house and, when I ask for something to cut on, get handed a glass board, I know for certain that I'm about to experience the dullest knives in the history of dull knives.

True story, for years she had el-crappo knives. Her husband didn't care, he can barely reheat pizza. At my urging, she bought a set of nice knives (she paid too much though, bought a set from a relative that was selling "high-end" knives, oh well...) She called my wife and said "Tell Brent I finally got some sharp knives so next time he's over he can't bitch..." Then she proceeds to nearly cut her left index fingertip off. Stitches actually through the fingernail took keep it on. So then she was afraid of her new sharp knives and went back to using her nasty dull may-as-well-be-butter-knives. Slowly, over years, her new knives - the few times she would use them - dulled down because of the stone cutting board. I was over there a few weeks ago and her $1000 knives were totally ruined, especially the serrated bread knife. A plastic knife is sharper than that thing. These "high-end" knives are not the kind you can regrind and put a new edge on. They are thin, probably stamped, low-carbon stainless steel. |

When I cook it's almost always in large batches and there is tons of meat and veggies to cut up. I am one of those cooks who needs a lot of room to work with. Just a preference I guess. Especially nice when you are prepping large cuts of meat such as legs of lamb. |

Even in the small kitchen I had in the house in Edmonton I put a butcher block island right in the middle that was 40" x 50". I hate cutting on counters most places the space is limited. Like I said it's not for now but the future where I will have a massive 4' x 10' butcher block island. I saw one like this in a clients house years ago when I had my first framing store. Beautiful. |
