wooden ones are easy to clean - you need a good stiff brush (i use an old handbrush) and some water (dont use soap - it dries them out too much) - keep the water running and brush into the sink - when it dires out too much put some olive oil onto it let it sit over nite, next day absorb the excess - it can last a long time (ive had one for more than 10 years) Kill the Ego, Loose the Mind, Use your Brain!
