Yoshihiro Hi Soft High Performance Professional Grade Cutting Board Japanese ...

Yes it's expensive, but if compared to the cost of your knives, it's a deal. Hard boards, even some wood ones, will dull your knives. (Glass boards will ruin them altogether—I've never understood what that was about). I have nothing but high-quality Japanese knives, and this board does not dull them at all. It protects the edge, is easy to clean (I run mine through the dishwasher once a week), and stays put on the counter. I'd give it six stars if that were an option.

This has to be the best cutting board I’ve ever had. I have used it several times to cut red cabbage and various other vegetables, so far there has not been any stains, scratches or odors. I wash and dry it by hand, it’s easy and comfortable to handle not to mention much easier on your knives

This is a very heavy cutting board made from rubber that is soft enough to avoid damaging the edges of very sharp knives. You don't have to be a sushi chef to appreciate that. It doesn't slip on the counter. It's easy to clean. Now I use only this cutting board for just about everything.

Love these Japanese cutting boards. Everyone should have one easy to clean and great for the edges on your Japanese knives. Not just for sushi chefs.

This is a plastic cutting board made from a very soft material. It is very different from other cutting boards I have had, and I have had quite a few. The reason to go soft is to keep your knives sharper, for longer. I am a knife fan, have various sharpening stones, and I cook every single day: so, I find it makes a difference. However, there is an additional benefit that I was not expecting: this board is so soft and thick and heavy that lies perfectly flat and stable on the counter. Once I experienced this, I get annoyed at all the other boards that do move, tipple, slip and slide to some degree. This one does not budge! The one downside is that you can not really clean it. It can not take heat, if u poor boiling water over it, it will actually change the surface. Rest it on a hot pan and it will melt. So scrubbing and soap is all we get. But then who among us actually sands off their wooden cutting boards, as is required in professional settings? Overall, best board I know, the others I use are single (no glue) pieces of softer wood from japan. I.e. top quality wooden bcutting boards. But this one is just so good I end up using it exclusively. Almost forgot it is also quieter.

Finally a board that will not damage my expensive knives. Cutting with it feels like your knife is landing on soft cushion instead of the hard clack of a regular board. It also does not chunk off like plastic boards where god only knows where the pieces end up. The only downside I can think of is that it is a bit heavy. That to me is not a downside though because it doesn't slide around in your counter as easily like most lightweight boards would.

Bought this after watching CultFlav's cutting board reviews and this one came out on top. I never thought I would cherish a cutting board but I love this thing... my knives feel like butter on it, it's easy to clean and take care of, I love that it's longer length-wise than normal which gives me more room to work, it doesn't slide on the counter, and while it is heavier than I was expecting it's also fairly easy to store and move around. I do wish it came in other colors, this color reminds me of an elementary school cafeteria tray, but I appreciate that it's at least inconspicuous. It's a lot of money to spend on just a cutting board so I bought it during Prime Day, but feel it would still be worth full-price if you can afford it!

Highly recommend this for its size and the fact that it saves your blade. It's made of high quality material, does not stain, and always cleans up very very nicely. We use it for all our meats - one thing I noticed is that when you cutting through meats, the knife easy goes all the way through as it very gently goes into the plastic to cut all the way through the meat. It's really cool. Absolutely lovely.

It is quite heavy and sturdy, but the surface of the board is not as well as compentive brand. After a couple of using with sharp knife, the groov of blade was left on it. The boad surface is not as smooth as other brand, you could feel the fine particel on it by using your finger tip rubbing it. Anyway, it is still one nice cutting board.

Should’ve gotten the bigger size though, maybe next time

This is great. It protects the wrist when chopping and also easy to clean.

Großartige schwere Qualität. High Perfomance trifft es. M. E. besser als jedes Holz- oder Kunststoffbrett. Nicht wirklich günstig - aber jeden Cent wert
