This precious cutting board is crafted individually using only solid, straight-grained wood, carefully selected by a discerning professional wood cutter, one of only a few left in Japan, who uses a large saw to assess the wood's quality and drying condition. It's crafted from ginkgo wood, which meets many of the requirements for a cutting board. It has long been a popular cutting board material, and has a history of being especially beloved by Japanese chefs.
Made with carefully selected materials and designed for functional beauty, MANAITA is recognized and used by world-renowned Japanese chefs.
Gingko wood meets many of the requirements for high-end cutting boards. This makes it popular as a cutting board material, and loved by cooks and chefs. This is especially true in the case of Japanese cuisine.
Excellent durability and antibacterial properties
The high amounts of natural oils in ginkgo prevent bacteria growth and make the board easy to clean. A unique trait of ginkgo is its quick and thorough drying capabilities.
“Recovery”- The unique specialty of ginkgo wood
Gingko wood swells when rinsed with water. This gives the wood self-healing properties from smaller blade marks. A board that can recover will last longer and look better.
Improved knife contact ability and grip
Gingko's surface has a moist and soft roughness. This prevents food and knives from slipping during cutting.
It's very gentle on your knife
Gingko wood is sturdy like any other premium wood but retains amazing elasticity as an added benefit. This reduces the risk of chipping your knife, blunts your knife slower, and prevents muscle strain.
