I like the concept, jes not Oxo's execution. Cheap wood. Poor rough
finish (pine?). Almost impossible to keep dough from sticking without
burying dough in flour. I recently acquired an old straight pin from
a sympathetic lady who no longer does pies. I promised her a pie!
Looks like hardwood. The difference in quality is painfully obvious.
