This is not your typical cheap plastic cutting board — and you can feel the difference right away. Made in Japan by Ihara Kihan, the SUMINO Premium Japanese Cutting Board uses a dense, 10mm-thick elastomer material that gives you a much softer, more comfortable cutting surface without feeling flimsy or light on the counter.
That slight cushioning helps absorb impact from every cut, making it much easier on fine Japanese edges and especially nice with thin, hard blades. Instead of that harsh clack you get from harder plastic or composite boards, the SUMINO has a smoother, quieter and more refined cutting feel.
The surface is also lightly textured to help reduce visible knife marks and make food easier to move around while prepping. Binchotan charcoal and an antibacterial treatment are built directly into the material, while the board itself is resistant to stains and odors, easy to clean, dishwasher safe, bleach safe and heat resistant up to approximately 130°C.
At 370 × 240 × 10mm, it’s a really practical everyday size, but the extra thickness gives it that solid, premium feel that separates it from basic plastic boards.
If you’ve already invested in good Japanese knives, this is the type of cutting surface that actually makes sense to pair with them — easier on your edges, nicer to cut on, and built for serious everyday use.

Please note that colours, shading, and overall appearance may vary slightly between photos and the product you receive. Lighting, camera exposure, and reflections on materials like steel, epoxy, and wood can all create subtle differences.
Many of our items are handmade, which means each piece has its own character. Minor variations in pattern, texture, or finish are normal and part of the craft.
