Why You'll Love It

Exceptional Edge Protection

Japanese knives are designed with thinner, harder edges than most Western knives.

The specialised rubber cutting surface absorbs impact during cutting, reducing stress on the blade and helping it stay sharper for longer.

Benefits include:

• Less edge wear
• Reduced risk of micro-chipping
• Smoother cutting feel
• Longer intervals between sharpening

A quality cutting board is just as important as a quality knife.

Innovative Hybrid Construction

Unlike conventional plastic boards, HASEGAWA boards feature a unique multi-layer design consisting of:

• Specialised soft rubber outer layers
• Lightweight wooden core
• Durable polyethylene side layers

This construction creates a board that is:

• Rigid and stable
• Resistant to bending
• Significantly lighter than many solid plastic boards
• Comfortable to use for extended prep sessions

Excellent Grip for Safer Cutting

The soft rubber surface helps prevent ingredients from sliding while cutting.

This provides:

• Better knife control
• Greater cutting precision
• Increased safety
• Improved confidence during detailed preparation

Especially useful when working with fish, vegetables, and delicate ingredients.

Hygienic and Easy to Maintain

Unlike traditional wooden boards, the HASEGAWA surface:

• Does not absorb odours
• Resists staining
• Is easy to clean
• Dries quickly
• Maintains excellent hygiene

Suitable for busy home kitchens and professional environments alike.

Dishwasher Safe

For added convenience, the board can be cleaned by hand with warm soapy water or placed in a dishwasher large enough to accommodate its dimensions.
