New Milk Street Japanese Hinoki Wood Cutting Board- Large

New in wrapping- sold out online Japanese Hinoki wood cutting board from Milk Street Ultra durable wood 20.8” x 11.61” Lightweight at 2.7 lbs Made from hinoki wood, a durable Japanese cypress, these featherlight cutting boards are perfect for prep tasks—and the board essentially “heals” itself. Unlike hardwood or end-grain cutting boards—which can be heavy, cumbersome and hard on knives—hinoki’s special properties make it Japan’s best-kept secret for food prep and knife maintenance. The medium-soft wood is gentle on knives. Every slice cuts into the hinoki a little, helping blades stay sharp; hard cutting surfaces like fabricated bamboo have almost no give, eventually dulling knives. (Tip: If you give your hinoki board a good scrub and wipe it mostly dry with a cloth, the grain of the wood will swell, repairing most cut marks).
