We have had this one for 9 years and it is still in great shape.

Are you set on solid wood block?

If not, the Epicurean line is nice. It’s a wood composite. Like wood blocks, good for your nice knives, but you can toss it in the dishwasher. I like mine. Easier to store and maintain.

However a nice Boos Block is quite sexy.

I have that one
It’s at least 20 years old and looking good
I’ll probably have to put it in my will

Well that sucks. For the prices NOLA Boards charges, you'd think it would be sturdier.

A zillion years ago, I bought one from Greg Arceneaux, a furniture maker on the Northshore. It's maple, pecan, walnut, etc. Still going strong, despite years of use.

Have you ever used Ecopoxy? Supposedly a food safe, eco friendly epoxy. I haven't tried it myself.

One company I've been looking at (haven't bought yet) is Brooklyn butcher block

LINK

I love supporting local businesses and this place looks legit to me

If you really want to go big, how about this?



I have one and I use one side for dough and the other as a cutting board.

Rat, I have one of those boards, too....bought it from Fante's in Philly, but I'd never use it as a cutting board, only for pastry. Mainly because it's so damn big I'd have to take it outside to scrub.

Fantes, source of much fun kitchen stuff: [quote]LINK ]
