I have a big butcher-block style end grain cutting board that my grandfather made, which was passed down to my parents, and then to me. I don't even know how old it is. It has a fairly substantial crack on one side, I assume from being stashed in a cupboard somewhere without being oiled for some time, and a circular scorch where someone must have set a hot pot down on it, but I still use it. It's build up on short legs and is just the right size to set over a sink (the legs lock it in and prevent it from wiggling around too much) when you're short on counter space. I also have an even more beautiful end-grain cutting board of similar size that my brother made me a few Christmases ago, but I'm afraid to use that one because it's so pristine compared to the other.

I was also gifted a set of bamboo utensils with painted handles four or five years ago (I think it's this set, or at least one very similar). The blue spoon is the absolute best wooden spoon I've ever used and I reach for it every day. I like that it has one rounded side and one pointy side, perfect for scraping fond and getting into the corners of pots. I dropped it behind the stove once and nearly cried, then went to a lot of trouble to get it out.
