The cutting board is new and unused. The knife has been used a few times. This is a set of a Disney character knife and cutting board for children. This knife was developed to allow children to safely practice cooking. The blade tip is rounded and serrated, prioritizing safety, so it doesn't cut like a regular knife. Hold the item you are cutting firmly, and cut by pushing it diagonally without using excessive force. The cutting board can be used on both sides, and the designs are different on each side.
