ARE EPICUREAN CUTTING BOARDS KNIFE SAFE? WHY DO I SEE SCORE MARKS?Updated 2 years ago

Yes, Epicurean’s cutting boards are knife safe. Score marks demonstrate that your board is working as intended. The cutting surface can and should show score marks; that is showing that your board is protecting your knife’s edge.

Keep in mind proper skills for using knives. Often, excessive knife marks or gouges in boards are a result of improper techniques. As an example: for serrated knives, a gentle back and forth motion should be used when cutting and only the tip of serrated knives should lightly touch cutting boards at the end of a cut.
