Winter in MN. You could open a retail outlet come spring
..... I kinda like sharpening my knives so I use plastic boards....
What do you guys think of the Epicurean boards. I can't find much in the way of reviews that aren't from sellers.

This.
Ok, I'd love to have rubber board or think block and save the edges, but the plastic boards are light, thin, ridgid enough to move around, fit at an angle in the sink for a good wash, and stuff under the cabinet when not being used. We have two, so space and portability is even more important.
I’m looking pretty hard at this one for the house. Could somebody do better job of spending my $150 better than me? Is there a better deal out there?

Any thoughts on an affordable, lighter board somewhere around 15" x 10" in size? Just looking for something that's light enough for my wife to pull out and use regularly, already have a large walnut butcher's block.
I was thinking a hinoki board might fit the bill, but how heavy/light would something like a Hi Soft be in comparison? (Also, Hi Soft or Sani Tuff?) Are there better hinoki options than the Shun boards?
I picked up the same one recently also+1 on Hinoki. I got a cheap one (non-Shun) through Amazon. It’s more or less replaced my end grain board for daily use. Light, pleasant feel on knife contact, and it smells nice. The one I got was branded as made in Korea if that helps.
Nice looking board.View attachment 65845 View attachment 65846 View attachment 65847
I just got this made from a local wood worker here in Denmark. It is edge grain walnut and it measures 50x30x4 cm. I chose wood and size myself. It is treated with raw virgin linseed oil. I could have chosen end grain aswell. But chose edgegrain because of looks and fewer glue contacts that can fail.
It is just so nice looking and feels solid and heavy. But unfortunately I haven't used it yet. My wife is very firm that it has to be wrapped and saved for Christmas.
The price was about 25 % more then a mass produced board the same size.
Nice looking board.
Can you tell me, whom you got it from?
I would like to expand my number of end-grain boards, and I´m also located in Denmark.[/QUOTE
