This is the best cutting board in the world, seriously! Not harvested until a ripe 250-300 years old, Hiba trees grow in  the Aomori Prefecture in Northern Honshu and are a part of the cypress family. Aomori Hiba wood makes for and ideal cutting surface because it has the perfect firmness level, so it won't damage blade edges. Due to a compound called Hinokitiol, Aomori Hiba wood is also naturally full of antimicrobial and germicidal properties and is resistant to both rot and mold. Because of these resilient Aomori Hiba wood is often reserved for building shrines and temples in Japan. Plus it smells amazing!

Care advisement:  This blade has a stainless cladding around most of the knife except for the edge, which is fully carbon. Care must still be used to avoid rust especially on the carbon portion of the blade. Wipe dry after each use, and ideally between preparing different products, especially when using acidic and salty products. A patina will form over time on the carbon portion helping increase stain resistance slightly. Hand wash and dry only. Store away from liquids and open windows. Keep the blade covered when storing or traveling. Use only on appropriate cutting surfaces such as softer woods and plastics.
