Cutting board SHUN HINOKI 40 x 27 cm, natural, wood, KAI

Product detailed description

A kitchen chopping board is usually just a backdrop. With the KAI SHUN HINOKI, however, its relationship with the knife is almost the main story. The softer hinoki wood is gentler on the blade than hard work surfaces, so it makes the most sense where you don't want to send a high-quality Japanese blade into a day-long battle with a board that clearly has sharper elbows.

Main advantages:

• The KAI SHUN HINOKI M DM-0816 cutting board offers a pleasant working surface made of Japanese hinoki cypress, which is gentle on the blades of high-quality kitchen knives.
• The soft and gentler surface of the wood helps to reduce excessive wear on the blade, making it particularly well-suited for high-quality Japanese knives.
• The dimensions of 40.5 × 27.5 × 1.35 cm provide plenty of working space for daily cutting, slicing, and preparing larger quantities of ingredients.
• On the spacious board, you can comfortably prepare vegetables, fruit, herbs, meat, and other ingredients without constantly having to move the chopped pieces aside.
• You will appreciate the larger format, for example, when preparing dinner for several people, when you need to have several types of ingredients on the work surface at the same time.
• Hinoki wood is valued for its lightness and fine structure, so even a larger board remains pleasant to handle every day.
• The natural surface provides a comfortable base when cutting and makes work more enjoyable for anyone who does not want to use high-quality knives on hard or unsuitable boards.
• The board is an excellent daily partner for KAI SHUN knives, whose sharp blades deserve a gentler working surface.
• The simple rectangular shape with rounded corners offers a practical working surface without unnecessary textured elements that would get in the way when cutting.
• The light grain of the Japanese cypress gives the board a natural and elegant look, so it can easily remain a visible part of the kitchen.
• The thickness of 1.35 cm keeps the board relatively subtle, yet it offers a sufficiently large surface for routine home and professional ingredient preparation.
• After use, it is recommended to clean the board by hand with a damp cloth or a soft sponge and then dry it thoroughly immediately.
• To preserve the appearance and properties of the wood, the surface can be regularly treated with a suitable oil designed for the care of wooden kitchen equipment.
• You will especially appreciate the KAI SHUN HINOKI M DM-0816 if you use high-quality knives regularly and want to give them a spacious, lightweight, and blade-friendly working surface.
