Kitchen Utensils

I bought this cutting board today, without knowing too much about it. I gave up asking the girl at the counter. But it looks pretty industrial to me, so I bought one, it's much heavier than what we have been using, I take it as a good sign. In fact it's very heavy. The honing stone at the top, my knife set since probably 13 years ago. My latest obsession is how to get things sharp.
