A chopping board is a vital kitchen accessory and there is a great level of versatility and flexibility when it comes to chopping boards. These boards are available in a wide range of sizes and widths and can be made from wood, plastic, marble, steel or glass. The wooden or plastic ones are the most common but the other materials are easier to clean. Even the most durable of chopping boards will be damaged and abraded through the use of knifes with a serrated edge.
