Cutting board with integrated sharpening stone
The cutting boards from Tyrolit Life, made in Austria, not only rely on high-quality materials and functionality but also go a step further to enhance the efficiency of your kitchen work. A special highlight of the product line is the cutting boards with an integrated sharpening stone.
The Tyrolit Life cutting boards with integrated sharpening stone offer an innovative solution for your kitchen and are available in two sizes.
The removable sharpening stone enables reshaping the blade while cutting. Simply wet the sharpening stone under running water, replace it back into the slot, and slide the blade along the sharpening stone at an optimal angle of about 15 degrees. Thanks to the slot, the sharpening stone remains securely non-slip.
To keep the whole wooden board from sliding on your kitchen surface, put a dish towel or a damp rag underneath the cutting board. This ensures you can perform your chopping tasks safely and effortlessly.
The Tyrolit Life cutting boards with an integrated sharpening stone intelligently combine functionality and practicality, making them an essential tool for all kitchen aficionados. Thus, you can easily and effectively sharpen your knives.
For optimal protection of your knife blades, a suitable surface is recommended. Here, wood proves to be an excellent choice. Especially the high-quality beech wood used at Tyrolit Life offers a first-class solution.
Its vibrant texture allows for gentle yielding when cutting, preserving the sharpness of the knives. Although sharp blades can leave traces on the wood, these incisions gradually close, and the result is a uniform cutting surface.
The advantages of the integrated grindstone in the cutting board
A special highlight of the Tyrolit Life cutting boards is the integrated ceramic grinding stone. This innovative addition makes it possible to sharpen the blade directly during cutting.
If your blade loses sharpness, you can effortlessly guide the knife over the sharpening stone to regain the desired sharpness. The sharpening stone can easily be removed from the cutting board, moistened and reinserted. With an angle of about 15 degrees you achieve optimal results and always keep your knives ready for use.
It is often assumed that cutting pads made of solid wood are less hygienic than plastic boards that can be placed in the dishwasher. A misconception, as Lisa Shelton of Koch with heart proves in the video.
It shows you how to disinfect your Tyrolit Life cutting board in 2 minutes without any artificial cleaning agents – with only 2 ingredients that can be found in every household.
The use of oiled beech wood not only ensures a blade-friendly surface, but also durability. The cutting board is hygienic and robust, which ensures its long-lasting use.
In order to maintain optimal functionality, regular care of the wood is recommended. Wet wiping after use and occasional oiling will keep the cutting board in prime condition.
Clean the cutting board with a gentle detergent and avoid putting wooden cutting boards in the dishwasher. A wooden cutting board cannot withstand the high temperatures and sharp dishwasher cleaners in the long run.
Cutting boards are made of various materials, including:
Wood: Particularly popular are wooden cutting boards, such as those made of acacia wood or beech. They give the kitchen a natural look with their rich brown and are gentle on the knife blades. Some types of wood also have an antibacterial effect. Bamboo is also often used.
Stainless steel: Stainless steel cutting boards are robust and durable. They are particularly suitable for preparing meat and are easy to clean. However, it is mainly used in gastronomic cuisine. Disadvantage, the kitchen knives become blunt very quickly.
Plastic: Plastic cutting boards are often colourful and versatile. They can be cleaned in the dishwasher.

Why should one use different cutting boards?
There are several reasons to use different cutting boards. For hygiene reasons, it’s advisable to use a distinct kitchen board for cutting raw meat (such as a carving board or chopping block) than the one used for snack time, or “Jause,” as we call it in Tyrol. Having a separate bread cutting board is also wise to prevent it from absorbing the flavors of different foods.
For aesthetic reasons, employing multiple cutting boards can also be beneficial – depending on whether they’re used for food preparation or presentation. Additionally, there are cutting mats and cutting boards equipped with drip trays.
Which cutting boards are more hygienic – wood, bamboo or plastic?
Both wooden and plastic cutting boards are suitable for hygienic use in the kitchen. Plastic cutting boards offer versatility and ease of handling. Moreover, they are often dishwasher-safe.
Wooden cutting boards, made from various types of wood like bamboo, acacia, end-grain, beechwood, and olive wood, are renowned for their natural beauty and durability. At Tyrolit Life, high-quality cutting boards are crafted from oiled beechwood, whose hygienic properties, appearance, and longevity stand out. The special sealant, along with regular maintenance and cleaning, ensures your cutting board stays clean and ready for use at any time.
