Kai Shun Hinoki Cutting Board [large]

Our Hinoki cedar cutting board brings together centuries of Japanese craftsmanship with the needs of modern kitchens—and the demands of your favorite Japanese knives. It’s soft on your blades and a joy to use every day.

The soft Hinoki wood is kind to your knives, keeping them sharp and precise for longer. Say goodbye to dull edges and chips—your blades will thank you.

• Made from soft Hinoki cedar, it helps keep your knives sharp and in top condition.
• Wetting the board slightly lifts the wood fibers, giving your ingredients a little grip. This makes chopping, slicing, and dicing safer and more precise.
• Hinoki cedar is naturally resistant to mold and bacteria, so it keeps your kitchen clean and hygienic.
• Plus, the board releases a subtle, pleasant cedar aroma that never transfers to your food—just a little extra sensory pleasure while you prep.

Using it is simple: moisten the board before every use, chop on the wet surface, then wash with mild soap and warm water. Let it dry upright on a draining rack to prevent warping, and it’ll serve you beautifully for years.

Hinoki boards have been trusted by sushi masters and professional chefs for generations. When you use it—especially moistened—you get that signature cedar scent and a unique cooking experience that makes every prep session a little more enjoyable.
