One thing I’ve learned in my relatively short career as a watermelon carver is that you can’t carve a watermelon without a good knife and cutting board. With the 2013 Watermelon Carving Contest just underway, I thought a cutting board and watermelon knife would be a good choice for the first of four weekly prizes given away here on the blog throughout National Watermelon Month.
The set is from the good folks at Dexas, who make all sorts of bright and colorful kitchen accessories. We’ve given away the Dexas cutting board and knife in the past, but this board and knife are new-and-improved. The board is slightly smaller than the previous version, which makes it nice for people (like me) with limited countertop space.
The knife is also different. While the old watermelon knife had a green handle and a red blade, this new model takes the theme a step further with a very cool watermelon color scheme on the blade.
The team at Dexas sent me the new board and knife to test in The Watermelon Guy kitchen and it works fantastically. Even if you’re not carving something fancy for this year’s contest, this set will come in handy for everyday watermelon slicing and dicing.
I’ll choose one comment at random from all the comments left on the blog this month to receive this prize. Good luck!

I have to say I love Dexas stuff. I’m a big fan, and this would be a really cool addition to my kitchen.
That thing is awesome. i was jsut down in the cooler checking bins of watermelons arriving fresh from delaware and If I had one of those knives i could prabably make a nice mess of melon cubes in a flash. Cool item.
I guess I’ll try my luck!
Looks good enough to eat! Would love to serve something on this board!
That carving board looks yummy and good enough to eat. The knife isn’t bad either. Would be a welcome addition to my kitchen counter.
Would love to own this!We just can’t seem to get enough of that Juicy Sweet Melon around here!Thank you for the chance.
What a great set! I love the colors? I just broke my favorite ceramic knife and sure could use this one. Very generous gift.
Love both these! The knife and cutting board will help me compete in the watermelon carving contest!
These are adorable & will encourage my family to eat even more watermelon, yay! We juice a lot of watermelon, the Dexas cutting board & knife would be an asset to any kitchen!
Just blended half a 25 lb watermelon with a banana, a handful of strawberries, some basil and cinnamon. Something I saw on YouTube. .
