Gene,
Pardon my ignorance, but what is a ULA board and what is it used for?
J
I think it's a typo, and Eugene meant to type "ulu"

it was a typo.. it should have been ulu... you are not ignorant and there is no such thing as a dumb question. A ulu knife is what the Eskimos used to skin and cut up fish... This is just an adaptation of that knife.. It make chopping up food much easier. I have customers that prefer it over a food processor. I have a customer that gives one to each student when they complete the culinary class. The bowl part of the cutting board makes it very easy to chop up herbs or other food that might want to roll around.

Ha, I did not know my grandma was an eskimo.
I remember she used such a thing in the sixties in Germany to chop herbs. Was called "Kraeuterwiege", i.e. the equivalent of "herb seesaw", probably because of the rocking motion. Still available and usually the knife has two parallel blades, making it more stable.
Not totally the same critter G.
I'd hate to skin a seal with that
I like them because usually they're honed flat on one side, so very easy to sharpen and strop or steel.
My Gram was Canadian and had something like a ulu that was her Mother's, but were 2 that met at a right angle(and holy heck to sharpen)and used in a circular rocking action.
Funny, my Sister brought me back one from Alaska 20yrs ago, but I never heard of a board for them(or Googled it)
Time to make me one of those....be way more useful now.
Easy with the 'Bot.
Thanks Eugene.
