Abstract
A cutting board apparatus is provided. The cutting board apparatus assists users with disabilities that would impede their ability to slice cutting articles. Additionally, the cutting board apparatus provides a safe cutting platform for new and inexperienced users. The cutting board apparatus contains a cutting board base, at least one hinge, and at least one cutting article holder. Each of the cutting article holders is hingedly connected adjacent to the cutting board base through one of the at least one hinge. The user can place a cutting article along the cutting board base. The user can then rotate the cutting article holder adjacent to the cutting article, where the cutting article holder will secure the cutting article in place atop the base. The user can then use any type of cutting implement to perform slicing operations without having their assist hand close to the cutting article.
