Cutting board SHUN HINOKI 45 x 30 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 L DM-0817 cutting board offers a generous working surface made of Japanese hinoki cypress, which is gentle on the blades of high-quality kitchen knives.
• The dimensions of 45.7 × 30.5 × 2 cm provide plenty of space for the convenient preparation of larger quantities of ingredients without constantly having to move chopped pieces aside.
• On the spacious surface, you can easily prepare vegetables, fruit, herbs, meat and fish, making the board suitable for everyday cooking as well as more demanding food preparation.
• The fine structure of hinoki wood helps to minimise blade wear and creates an ideal working surface for very sharp Japanese kitchen knives.
• The board is an ideal companion to KAI SHUN knives, but you will also appreciate its gentle surface when using other high-quality, sharp blades.
• The large size comes in handy when preparing a family lunch, a multi-course menu, or when you need to process several types of ingredients at once.
• Japanese hinoki cypress is valued for its fine structure and lightweight feel, meaning even a larger board remains easy and comfortable to handle.
• The 2 cm thickness gives the board a more robust feel and creates a stable working base for precise cutting and portioning of larger ingredients.
• The simple rectangular shape with rounded corners provides a maximum usable working surface without any complex features that would get in the way of cutting.
• The light natural grain of the wood looks clean and elegant, meaning the board does not have to be just a utility tool, but can remain a visible feature in your kitchen.
• Thanks to its gentle surface, it is well suited for chefs who want to treat their high-quality knives to gentler contact than on hard or unsuitable surfaces.
• The board is suitable for both home and professional kitchens where regular use of sharp knives and a larger working area are expected.
• You will particularly appreciate the KAI SHUN HINOKI L DM-0817 if you often cook in larger quantities, use high-quality knives, and want a spacious, lightweight, and blade-friendly working surface.
