The best partnership for a chef - amateur or professional is a good knife paired with a good cutting board. Having a good quality cutting board keeps a knife from getting dull too soon. Cutting boards provide the ideal surface for cutting fruits, vegetables, meat, bread and more. Bed Bath & Beyond carries a wide selection of cutting boards in wood, bamboo, plastic, stone, and glass--designed for food-safe use. A large cutting board makes cutting easier and safer, giving you sufficient room to move the knife safely while allowing you to move chopped onions, vegetables, or fruit out of the way. A good rule of thumb is to have an inch of space on the cutting board on either end of the knife when the knife is placed diagonally across the cutting board. This means for a 10-inch chef’s knife the cutting board should be at least 12 inches diagonally. If you love wood cutting boards, we carry a variety of woods such as: Acacia, walnut, maple, cherry, teak, butcher block. These wood cutting boards are attractive and versatile and complement any kitchen décor; some even are in sets.
