Neem Wood Round Chopping Board with Reha Chef Knife – A Complete Handcrafted Prep Set
A chopping board with knife is the pairing every kitchen actually works from – a stable surface to cut on and one good blade to cut with. This combo brings together two handcrafted Kansa & Clay Heritage Kitchen pieces that are usually bought separately: the Round Neem Wood Chopping Board and the Reha Handcrafted Chef Knife.
The board is made from a single seasoned piece of neem wood by artisans of West Bengal, who work in the region's neem woodcraft tradition. The knife is forged and finished by the Reha craftsmen of Kutch, Gujarat, using metalworking skills carried through generations. Bought together, the two cost ₹3,999 instead of ₹5,260 – a saving of ₹1,261 on the individual prices.
What's in the Combo
•
1 × Round Neem Wood Chopping Board – 29 cm diameter, 38 cm total length including the handle, 2.0–2.5 cm thick, approximately 1 kg. Cut from a single block of seasoned neem wood, usable on both sides.
•
1 × Reha Handcrafted Chef Knife – 12.7 cm blade, 31.8 cm overall length, approximately 210 g. Stainless steel blade with an ergonomic handle, hand-finished in Kutch.
Product Highlights
•
Two Crafts, Two Regions – Neem woodwork from West Bengal and blade craft from Kutch, Gujarat, brought together in one working set.
•
Single-Piece Neem Board – Cut from one solid block rather than glued strips, so the board stays stable under the knife and does not separate over time.
•
Substantial Working Surface – At 29 cm across and 2.0–2.5 cm thick, the board has the weight to stay put while you cut, and the depth to take years of use.
•
Integrated Handle – The 38 cm length includes a handle, so the board doubles as a serving platter and is easy to lift and hang.
•
Reversible – Both faces can be used, which extends the working life of the board considerably.
•
One Knife for Most Tasks – The 12.7 cm blade handles slicing, chopping, dicing and mincing across vegetables, fruit, meat and fish.
•
Naturally Bacteria-Resistant Wood – Neem is known for its natural resistance to bacterial growth, which is part of why it has long been used for food surfaces in Indian kitchens.
•
Care and Maintenance – Wash the board by hand and dry it upright; never soak it or put it in a dishwasher. Oil occasionally with food-grade oil. Wash the knife with mild soap, dry immediately, and store dry.
Why Choose This Combo?
•
Better Value Than Buying Separately – ₹1,261 less than the two products bought individually.
•
A Complete Gift, Ready to Give – Board and knife together make a finished present for housewarmings, weddings and anniversaries, where a single item can feel incomplete.
•
Replaces Plastic in the Kitchen – Plastic boards shed micro-particles into food with prolonged use. Solid neem wood offers a natural cutting surface instead.
•
Matched for Real Use – Wood is kind to a knife edge in a way that glass, stone and hard plastic are not, so the board helps the blade hold its sharpness.
•
Supports Two Artisan Communities – Each combo sustains both neem woodworkers in West Bengal and Reha metalworkers in Kutch.
•
Each Set Is Unique – Natural grain variation means no two boards look alike.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What exactly is included?
One Round Neem Wood Chopping Board and one Reha Handcrafted Chef Knife. Both are also sold individually.
2. How big is the chopping board?
29 cm in diameter, 38 cm in total length including the handle, and 2.0 to 2.5 cm thick. It weighs roughly 1 kg.
3. What size is the knife?
The blade is 12.7 cm and the knife measures 31.8 cm overall, weighing approximately 210 g.
4. Can the board go in the dishwasher?
No. Wash it by hand, dry it standing upright so both faces dry evenly, and never leave it soaking. Dishwashers and prolonged water contact will crack solid wood.
5. How do I care for the neem wood?
Wipe down after each use and dry thoroughly. Every few weeks, rub in a food-grade oil to keep the surface conditioned and prevent drying out.
6. Will the knife dull the board, or the board dull the knife?
Neither. Wood is the recommended surface for a good knife precisely because it gives slightly under the edge, unlike glass, marble or hard composite boards, which blunt blades quickly.
7. Is this suitable as a gift?
Yes. A board and knife together are a common choice for housewarmings, weddings and anniversary gifting, and both pieces are handcrafted rather than mass produced.
8. Can the board be used for meat and fish?
Yes. As with any board, wash thoroughly between raw meat and other ingredients, or use one face for each.
