In addition to being attractive, a wood cutting board has some rather unique and beneficial properties. For instance, a wood cutting board has antimicrobial properties. Studies have shown that a wood board draws bacteria inward, trapping the microbes until they die. This eliminates the periodic sterilization process some other boards require to remain safe. Longevity is another benefit of wood, as is its tendency not to dull knives as quickly. Durable and "self-healing," these cutting boards have lasted for generations. All of these are reasons Knife Depot chooses to offer dozens of sizes and styles for you to choose from.
