Comments about Catskill Craftsmen, Inc. Super Slab with Finger Grooves:
This cutting board is top quality and the price is 50% less than almost all other sites I've searched. 3" may have been a little thick after we got an upclose look at it but we decided to keep it nonetheless. It was a great decision. It's definitely eye catching and we can cut anything on this board while leaving items that we're cutting, on the board. We choose to cut mostly veggies and fruit just so as to not contaminate it with chicken and other meats. The board is great and I would recommend it to anyone. One item we failed to take into concideration (only during the mailing of the board!) was the 3" thickness compared to the 1-1/2" thickness of our island top. At first it looked out of place but it now stands out great b/c of other matching items next to the board.

Comments about Catskill Craftsmen, Inc. Super Slab with Finger Grooves:
I cook and bake quite often, and I use this block to chop everything from vegetables and herbs to chocolate and nuts. It has a nice rich color and looks great on my countertop. I oiled it daily for the first week after receiving it, and now every couple of weeks. So far I am very happy with it and it seems to be a piece that will last a lifetime.

Comments about Catskill Craftsmen, Inc. Super Slab with Finger Grooves:
I did a lot of research before making this purchase. I have several plastic cutting boards for cutting meat, chicken, fish etc, but I wanted a heavy duty nice thick wooden butcher block to leave out on the counter for everyday use. I absolutely LOVE this block. It took about 2 1/2 bottles (pint size I think) of mineral oil to do the initial seasoning because of the end grain (buy it at a drug store) but worth the effort if it prevents it from splitting. The end grain totally hides knife marks well, so although I've only had it about a month or two, I use it everyday and it looks brand new. I did place a silpat mat underneath because in spite of it's hefty weight, it did slide a bit on my slick countertop.
