The Medieval Cheese Board is Perfect for 'Game of Thrones' Watch Parties
Michael Hines — May 5, 2017 — Lifestyle
Those who throw "Game of Thrones" watch parties and serve cheese should consider upping their game with the Medieval Cheese Board. This cheese board takes the form of a shield while the knives are Medieval weapons. The board itself is made of rubberwood while the double-sided ax, regular ax and spear are all made from 420 stainless steel blades which ensures that they're tough enough to cut through any cheese.
Nowadays the line of what's considered "geeky" has moved considerably. This has led to a rise in products influenced by history and sci-fi. Whereas a Medieval Cheese Board might have been considered "nerdy" a decade ago such a product is mainstream and a welcome addition to any television watch party. The Medieval Cheese Platter is available from ThinkGeek and costs $34.99.
