The Kiridashi Shichirin is made by manually cutting out clay into blocks at the end of a tunnel that has been dug for many years, so as not to crush the air pocket contained in natural diatomaceous earth. It is usually kneaded to break up the clay mass, which can crush air vessels. The Kiridashi Shichirin is cut into blocks and processed into a Shichirin shape as it is, so the vacuoles do not collapse, and it is characterized by higher heat retention and lightness. In addition, the work of cutting out requires many years of skill and physical strength, and due to the aging of craftsmen, there are currently only two companies in the world that can make cut-out shichirin.

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 super duper rot and mold resistant. Because of these resilient properties Aomori Hiba wood is often reserved for building shrines and temples in Japan. Plus it smells amazing!
