why?
Where I agree with cuts on the wood being most of the problem, It is not realistic to send the cutting board every time you cut something on it.There is no way you can put meat or fish on a wooden board with no bad bacterial resulting from it. You can't cut fish or meat and then vegetables that are being eaten raw. No way.
Anyway, when there are cut marks in the wood, it absolutely needs to be resanded and possibly refinished. We aren't doing all of that and that is why we use glass.
I have some seriously expensive, razor sharp, knives, but even they, if resharpened every time, will get ruined pretty fast. Who can afford to replace the knives every year, or so.so what? you can't sharpen or replace knives?
I love my knives. IYou can't dance at every wedding. If you want to replace your knives often, don't get $$$$ ones.
get an end grain wood board. the size, front to back, should be 1.5 times the longest knife you use.I love my knives. I
d rather figure out what to do about cutting board.![]()
I'm pretty sure that they didn't even test bamboo in the study done at UC Davis.IIRC bamboo was the wood they considered the most anti-bacterial
Unless the stain is an incriminating imprint of your ex-wife's face - why do you feel the need to get rid of it?
Do you actually have OCD? Or are you just compulsive about some things?Have I not mentioned before that I have OCD?

I used to cringe when I'd see my Mom cut on a glass cutting board. She had to keep the knives I gave her separate, and promised not to use them on that board!
