My heavy, old, not-laminated cutting board turns to bits of fine sawdust when I use the knives I like best: the ultra sharp serrated kind. Can anyone recommend a board that won't do that. Good quality plastic is okay tho I kind of like wood. Or whatever you think. Thanks. PS. I'm not changing knives.

@sgsvirgil. Many thanks for your advice and recommendations. There are cheap bamboo boards at the supermarket; would they be just as good as the pricier ones? I have no idea about these things. Am waiting for your further advice!

@sgsvirgil. Many thanks. I'm using my teeny tiny backup plastic board because the wooden one is not useful anymore and when winter comes will be thrown into the woodburning stove.

Oh for goodness sakes!!!!!! You don't use serrated knives on wood, period! You might as well be using a saw.

LOL. But what do you REALLY think of stupid people, rick alan?

Someone here, Brian Shaw, said I should look for poly board. So I thought of buying a Vettore Large Non Slip Poly Cutting Board. I found this on Amazon.

@foodpump. Many thanks for your helpful comments. Maybe I was not correct in describing my favorite knife as "serrated", because it is not serrated like the kind you use for bread (I have a couple of those also). It is beveled on one side. It is scary sharp and I just love it.

Maybe I don't understand how to describe it (my best knife); it looks like this:
