Best Answer

Granite is one of the toughest stones in the world and will not be affected by knives. After cutting directly on my granite countertop, I have experienced that my knives get dull after a few uses only. So cutting directly over a granite countertop will not affect the countertop material but it will affect the sharpness of your knife. I have installed granite countertop in my kitchen with the help of pros at countertopshop.net and mostly I avoid chopping things directly over the countertop. My granite kitchen countertop was installed around 4 years ago and still, it looks like a new one. Cheers!!

Why stainless steel knives do not harm granite cutting boards?

Most of the cheaper stainless steel knives are made out of lower grade steel, softer than granite. They will dull quite quickly in that service. True knife steel, the 440 series MAY scratch the granite, depending on the quality, which one of the 440's its made out of and how it was heat treated.

Will Windex damage granite countertops?

Only if your granite countertops are sealed, Windex will not harm them. However, it is not advised to use ammonia or abrasives on granite. The best way to clean granite is with warm soapy water, then rinse and buff dry with a dry towel. To keep your granite from staining or being damaged be sure to have it sealed with a non-toxic sealant every 1 to 2 years.
