    Maybe I missed it - but the Hasegawa FRK series - which I purchased from Burrfection - is dishwasher safe. Big thing for me and cutting boards. I've had it about six months and it's gone through 100+ washes in my dishwasher with no noticeable negative effects on the board. Great purchase. Nice vid.

    What I still have not understood from any of your board descriptions, is what the knife durability of any of these boards is. Specifically the Dunn board. By law, the material must be disclosed for reasons of
    safety . If the board surface is that hard and is non mailable, I would think that it's similar to bamboo wood. Not good for the edge of any knife.

      You are wrong, and the culinary equivalent of a fudd. No one cares what fudd's think.
      There is indeed one VERY good use for them at home; an immunosuppressed or immunocompromised home. Cross contamination which would not remotely faze a normal person could put these people in the hospital. Wood is too porous to 100% guarantee no cross contamination and unlike plastic and rubber, cannot be fully sanitised without damage.
      Wood is fine for vegetables and fully cooked protein, but for cutting raw chicken and pork these households NEED plastic boards which can ACTUALLY be sanitised, and in some cases even sterilized.
      All professional kitchens in most developed nations require the use of artificial boards for a reason.
