The Finer Slicing Cutting Board is like a cheat sheet for chopping and dicing in the kitchen. Meant for those who require a little bit of guidance when preparing meals for the day, it is marked up with knife-guiding lines that help people chop up veggies, meats and more with precision and purpose.
Created by Van Eijk and Van Der Lubbe of The Usuals, a design studio based in the Netherlands, the Finer Slicing Cutting Board was etched using a laser printer. From radiating circles in the center outline for tomatoes, onions and melons to grids in the corner for dicing carrots, celery and more, the Finer Slicing Cutting Board is a helpful tool that looks good too.
