John Boos is that brand of cutting boards that you see on the Food
Channel... wouldn't know if that makes the brand any better or worse <g>

I'm very pleased with mine. One thing I did find out about cutting boards
is to avoid the bamboo ones.

I love having a large surface for chopping and am thinking about removing my
Corian-topped island and replacing the top with a maple cutting board
surface for the whole island.

Bottom line though is that you should be pleased with the Cutlery & More
people.
