Made in Japan. As these items are made from wood, they should not go into the dishwasher and should not be soaked for long periods of time. Soak in water for a few minutes prior to use to avoid sticking. Wash with mild soap under cold water and dry.

Mr. Kuramoto and his family have been hand making wooden kitchen tools for over 100 years in Miyajima, a city infamous in Japan to produce the most wooden spatulas in the whole country. He cares most about the feel of the tool in your hand, and takes great care on every product. He uses six different types of sanding tools to get the feel just right. No two pieces are the same, and the more you use them the more they will develop “ajiwai” or “flavor”. The soft smell of wood is a sheer delight to cook with, and no need to fear chemicals leaching out into your food or melting during cooking, or scratching your pots and pans!
