Milk Street Hinoki Board

$69.95
Size

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).

The Small and Large boards are milled from Japanese-grown, FSC-certified wood. Sticking to tradition, they are simply finished—sanded down to a uniform surface that maintains its natural grain and provides a hint of traction for safer, slip-free slicing. to maintain its natural grain. We added anti-warp inserts at each corner of the board to ensure the board remains perfectly flat through years of service. Hinoki’s soft, piney scent comes from its natural resin, or yani. Yani helps the board wick water, fight mold and bacteria naturally, dry quickly and easily resist odors—it’s no wonder this type of cutting board is the tool of choice for sushi chefs. Available in Large and Small sizes.

The Best Cutting Boards, Period

  1. Featherlight Yet Durable

    Hinoki wood is ultra-light and tough as nails—ideal for daily use.

  2. Naturally Water- and Mold-Resistant

    Hinoki’s natural resins wick water and inhibit mold and bacteria growth.

  3. Won’t Warp, Slip or Skid

    Anti-warp inserts at the corners keep these boards flat and stable through years of service.

  4. Keeps Blades Sharp

    Hinoki wood cushions knives with every cut so they stay sharper, longer.

    Everyday cleaning causes the hinoki to swell slightly, which repairs most cut marks.

Japan’s Best-Kept Secret for Easier Prep

Built to Protect Knives, Not Beat Them Up

Blades bounce right off harder materials, but soft-grained hinoki wood cushions them with every cut. The softer the board, the easier it is on the micron-thin edge of a knife—so they stay sharper.

Sanded to a Naturally Non-Slip Finish

We sand these boards just enough to preserve their natural grain, providing traction for slippery ingredients like squash and fresh fruit.

High Performance, Low Maintenance

Hinoki wood “heals” itself during cleaning; a scrub and quick wipe and they’re good as new.

These Boards Even Smell Good

The yani resin in hinoki wood has a pleasant, piney scent—and it repels unwanted odors, too.
