Title: Picked up some car camping items.
Post by: Aloha on April 03, 2017, 06:05:10 PM: I usually bring a plastic mat to cut food up when car camping. I saw these and decided to give them a go. I treated them with some mineral oil as directed and will give them a proper try in my kitchen first. They are a pretty decent size and fit perfectly into my car camp gear bag.

I also got another Stanley cook pot, this time for my friend.

I usually stick out the plastic cutting boards from the dollar store and toss them when try get nasty.

Those look great though, I feel like if I go camping with you I'll need to wear a tie!

I wanted something a bit more rugged so we'll see how it goes.

Nice set :salute:

Post by: Aloha on December 04, 2017, 05:35:22 PM: I'm back from a camp trip and was able to use my bamboo cutting boards. Of the three I used the two larger ones and they were quite nice. I was "worried" they'd dull my knives as bamboo is pretty hard material. I used my Hunter as my food prep knife which was not dulled at all. They cleaned up nicely which is also a plus. I still have plastic mats but I'll be using these for now. We'll see how long they last over time but for now I'm happy with the first time out.

Post by: Aloha on December 05, 2017, 01:28:50 AM: Thanks. I am very happy with them. My biggest concern was dulling blades but that was not an issue. I like how well they cleaned up and unlike my plastic mat cutting "boards" they lie flat.
