The unique paddle shape of this board makes it ideal for carving meats and then serving right from the carving surface. Measuring 19 inches long (including the carved handle), 10 inches wide, and with a thickness of 3/4 inch, the board is ideal for slicing and serving smaller cuts of meat, such as a 1-pound flank steak, and has a 1/2-inch well around its perimeter to catch any juices. Alternatively, hosts can flip the board over and use it as a tray for serving cheeses, smoked salmon, or pate. This environmentally sustainable product is created from reclaimed North American hardwood that has been carefully selected for quality and purchased from mills throughout the country. The board is then hand-crafted by skilled woodworkers in Wisconsin--an area known for its rich woodworking tradition. Wood is hand-sanded and finished with a food-grade oil to protect it against cracking and warping. This wood is easy on knife blades and won’t contribute to their dulling. Periodic treatment with wood oil (Snow River’s own brand is recommended) and hand washing and drying will keep this utility board in good-as-new condition. --Cristina Vaamonde
