I designed Sous Chef Boards after watching the family work with Velda in the kitchen … her assistants were given assignments to go chop this or slice that, and then they returned to her with the product of their toils. They needed a mobile something, and I started making these handled cutting boards.
These are the larger version of Sous Chef Boards … and therein lies the tale.
You see, when I started making this batch of large Sous Chef Boards, I started experimenting with the handles: length and width were both in play. And then I played with the cutting surface itself, with sizes ranging from 9″ to 11″ wide.
I then discovered that those boards with a lot of Jatoba or Purpleheart were heavier than those with a lot of Hard Maple or Black Walnut, due to their increased density.
Can’t wait to take these 10 boards to market and see who likes what.

I cannot believe that someone would really use these to cut on. I know you want that, but they are art. They are really gorgeous; I am sure they will be a huge hit.
If nobody buys one, I know where you can dispose of them!!! Seriously, they’re gorgeous!
