Bring natural elegance and superior function to your kitchen with the Medium Hinoki Cutting Board, crafted from a single plank of 70–80 year old Shimanto Hinoki cypress. The one piece construction highlights the beautiful wood grain while providing a durable surface that is gentle on knives and comfortable for everyday use.

Hinoki is prized for its natural resin, which resists water, prevents staining, and offers mild antibacterial properties. With every use, it releases a refreshing, citrus like aroma that enhances the cooking experience. The board is finished with coated ends for added strength, ensuring years of reliable performance.

Designed with convenience in mind, it features a discreet rotating leg that lets you stand it upright for quick drying and easy storage. Lightweight yet sturdy, this handcrafted cutting board blends timeless Japanese craftsmanship with modern practicality, making it an indispensable tool for any home cook.

Key Features & Benefits:

Single Plank Hinoki: Crafted from one solid piece of cypress for durability and beauty
Knife Friendly Surface: Gentle on blades while maintaining sharpness
Built In Stand:Rotates out for upright drying and space saving storage

Care Guide:

Before Use: Lightly wet the board and pat off excess water. This helps prevent staining, odor absorption, and moisture penetration.
After Use: Wash with mild soap and water, wipe clean, and stand upright to air dry completely.
Do not soak or place in the dishwasher.
No oiling is needed—oiling may clog the pores, diminish antibacterial properties, and alter the wood’s natural texture.

Why I Always Use a Hinoki Cutting Board

From slicing vegetables to cleaning up at the end, the cutting board you use can shape your entire kitchen experience. I choose hinoki (Japanese cypress) cutting boards because they bring together beauty, function, and craftsmanship in a way that just feels right for everyday cooking.

1. Gentle on Knives and Naturally Antibacterial

Hinoki wood has a soft, straight grain that cushions your knife with every slice, helping preserve sharp edges, especially on delicate Japanese blades. It also has natural antimicrobial properties, so it resists odors and mold without the need for harsh chemicals. If you’ve invested in high quality knives, this is the board that helps keep them in top shape.

2. Lightweight, Compact, and Clever

Unlike heavy hardwood boards, hinoki is light and easy to carry, rinse, and dry. Most of our designs include a built in rotating stand that lets you store the board upright, saving space on your counter and improving airflow for faster drying.

3. Easy to Care for with Timeless Beauty

There is no need for oiling, seasoning, or special products. Before use, wet the board to help prevent food stains. After cutting, rinse with mild detergent and let it dry completely. That’s all you need—its natural antibacterial qualities do the rest.
