STEELPORT Launches Compact SteelCore™ 'Mini' Cutting Board and Three Holiday “Knife & Board” Gift Sets

Innovative and elegant American handcrafted cutting boards with ultra-thin end-grain dual-surface are the holiday must-have for home cooks and mixologists.

PORTLAND, OR, UNITED STATES, September 23, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The artisan team at STEELPORT Knife Co., known for their award-winning, American-forged kitchen cutlery, expands their groundbreaking SteelCore™ Cutting Board line with the introduction of the new STEELPORT SteelCore™ Mini Cutting Board (9” x 6”), along with three new premium Knife & Cutting Board Sets, perfect for holiday gifting.

Earlier this year, STEELPORT launched the first-of-its-kind SteelCore™ Cutting Board, a steel-reinforced, dual-sided design that combines ultra-thin American walnut end-grain with a durable recycled paper composite surface. The board’s innovative construction, achieved with a patent-pending embedded steel core, makes it the thinnest and most stable end-grain board on the market. The first production run of this debut collection sold out within hours of launch.

Now, responding to overwhelming customer demand to expand the SteelCore line, STEELPORT is proud to introduce the SteelCore™ Mini Cutting Board, 9” x 6”, offering the same heirloom-quality innovation in a compact, portable size.

“Customers love the innovation and versatility of the SteelCore™ Cutting Board, and the Mini is our answer to those who wanted the same features scaled down for bartending, smaller kitchens, and outdoor entertaining,” says Ron Khormaei, Founder and CEO of STEELPORT Knife Co. “We applied the same patent-pending SteelCore™ technology—an embedded steel matrix inside the core of the cutting board—to create a compact version where the technology is essentially invisible, but makes all the difference in delivering a premium performance. It’s this internal steel reinforcement that makes the unique dual-sided functionality and ultra-thin design possible.”

The new SteelCore™ Mini Cutting Board ($85) measures 9” x 6” x 0.75”, joining the SteelCore™ Standard Cutting Board ($280), which measures 18” x 12” x 0.75”. Key differentiating features that set STEELPORT’s innovative SteelCore™ line apart from any other cutting board available include:

- Two-Sided Functionality: One side features FSC-certified walnut end-grain wood, gentle on blades and naturally self-healing; the other side offers a non-porous recycled paper composite surface with a juice groove.
- Patent-Pending SteelCore™ Technology: Embedded steel beams deliver unmatched stability, resisting warping and splitting common in traditional boards.
- Ultra-Thin & Portable: At just 0.75” thick, this is the thinnest end-grain cutting board available. Along with its unique bevel angle edges, the SteelCore™ is easy to pick up, move, flip, carry, and store.
- Made in Portland, Oregon: Handcrafted locally using all USA-sourced materials.
