Just got an Enso HD chef knife and it's super tits. I wanna buy a nice edge grain cutting board but they're fucking expensive. Anyone use PVA boards? They're not as gorgeous but they're definitely easier on the wallet.

Pictured: Tigerwood and walnut cutting board that I want super badly.

You want end grain, not edge grain.

Edge grain is cheap shit, end grain is expensive.

I use a hi-soft board I imported from Japan. It wasn't cheap, but it was worth it.

I was originally in the market for end grain, but unfortunately most of them seem to be manufactured by religious maniacs and right wing nutjobs. I looked for something made abroad but most of the foreign made stuff seems to be mineral-heavy woods. Teak and stuff like that.

Safest thing by far is to just go for Hi-Soft. There is a US competitor called Sani-Tuff but the quality, being American, is probably substandard, not to mention the fact that you are supporting people who probably want decent human beings to be rounded up and deported for not being named Smith, Davis, or Goebbels.

>manufactured by religious maniacs and right wing nutjobs
Lol wut?

I mean, you're either an autistic retard, or you consider anyone who has a religion, a "religious maniac", or anyone who is conservative a "right wing nutjob".

In either case, there are MANY good manufacturers of end grain cutting boards in the US, the guy who started out over on cheftalk forum, or whatever forum it was.

Except that it's a pretty open fact in the knife world that American "knife gear" culture is infested with those kinds of people. Dead giveaways: mentioning Jesus when writing about your knife business. Saying shit like "911 never forget" when you have zero connection to NYC and probably secretly want the whole city to be smitten by the Old Testament God for having too many gays and brown folks and uppity females. "Blue lives matter" garbage. And so on.

So if you're a US based manufacturer of knife gear, you're automatically suspect. Hmm, it's almost like being profiled and stereotyped isn't fun, huh? And now you know.

You want my business back you can do like the Penzey's Spices guy does. Otherwise, enjoy your Chapter 11.

I've been going out of my way to pay a premium for Made in USA since before you were born. Sent tens of thousands of money to flyover states when I could have been buying from other countries. In light of some developments that are beyond the scope of "Food & Cooking" I've decided it's time to reconsider that approach.

Forgive me for deciding not to send you free money anymore, it's not you it's me.

It's because in America most of the customer base that buys high end knives are hunters who want to be able to cook up a kill. Hunters are by and large majority conservatives and right wing because the left fills it's ranks with gun grabbing authoritarian types are you opposed to the bill of rights anon?

What is "the Jewish agenda"? The reason I ask is that I work for a privately held corporation that is in fact owned by Jews. I share a lot in common with Jewish people. Education level, sympathy for oppressed people, belief in hard work and independence. I have donated a fair amount of money to HIAS for instance because I think they do great work.

That being said I strongly support BDS which is slandered with the "antisemitism" tag because I understand that Jews and the Israeli government are two distinct concepts contrary to what some religious maniacs might want you to believe. It's a shame because Israeli stolen land produces some of the finest winter produce available around here.

I have had lapses of willpower on occasion and bought Israeli goods but I always feel terrible about it.

It's funny how you nutjobs think the 2nd Amendment is the only part of the bill of rights while supporting wholesale roundups of law abiding people on account of the remote possibility that not being anglo might mean that they're an illegal immigrant. Let alone trying to revoke birthright citizenship or whatever.

Maybe you should take one of those guns you love so much, stick it in your mouth, and pull the trigger. Make America Great Again, that's what you'd be doing.
