Old Yankee Cutting Boards

One of the critical uses of knives remains food preparation and one should use a good cutting board under the blade.

Here is a link to the cutting boards used by both Chris Reeve (ok, Anne Reeve ) and myself: http://oldyankeecuttingboards.com/

The guy who runs this outfit is a great friend of both of ours and my fault for not posting this link much earlier.

The wood he uses is as amazing as the quality of construction and craft he puts into them.

Bless you, Bill, for being so timely! Our 25th anniversary is next week and, with my wife, it's always carbon-steel, cast iron, or wood. We have more cutting boards than knives! One more is never too much.

Old Yankee Cutting Boards

Guys,
I just recieved a cutting board from Dean at Old Yankee! I have to say that it is a true example of American craftsmanship. No doubt that is is made to last a life time. I'm confident my Grandchildren will be uysing this one.

Actually, no. See below the FDA guidelines, and the Old Yankee Boards PDF on Board care:
Thanks. Good job. Learned something new and I've always like wood boards over synthetic any day.

Resurrecting an old thread..

Mr. Harsey,

I received my cutting board from Dean a few days ago, it is absolutely gorgeous - I know the recipient will be very happy! Thanks for the heads up to Old Yankee, and Dean for his outstanding work!

I have had a Catskill "Super Slab" for years and really like it. It does not move!

Next time I'll get a Old Yankee Cutting Board, you can never have too many cutting boards!

I use my old Yankee board almost everyday, it looks just as good as the day I got it! Just a little care and it will last you a long time. I just wish my kitchen was as well made and constructed.
