Kakudo Chopping Board (OUT OF STOCK)

Description

I am a Kakudo Chopping Board. It’s all about concentration. Focus, aim for the target, and strike at the right moment. Don’t worry about the details, I got your back and I can handle the blow.

Curator’s Notes

These octagonal chopping boards are handcrafted from maple wood obtained from the lush mountainous forests of Hokkaido and finished with food-safe oil. Each board has a small carved maple wood insert on the side and features gently rounded edges. Functional, intricately crafted design for the kitchen can’t get much better than this!
