Our workshop standards
Solid Grade 1 Titanium Sheet
A continuous solid metallic surface that resists deep gouging, absorbs zero juices, and stops microplastic peeling at the prep counter.
Non-Porous Odor Neutrality
Garlic, raw onions, and fish oils rinse away with plain water because the non-reactive metal matrix cannot trap liquids or stale smells.
Individual Flatness Inspection
We inspect every single board against a precision ground stone before packing, verifying uniform corner contact and smooth rounded borders.
Direct Workshop Dispatch
Boards ship directly from our Pacific Avenue facility in heavy unbleached kraft card stock with corner corner-guards to prevent transit scratches.
Common questions
what is the katori board made ofEvery board is crafted from solid Grade 1 commercially pure titanium sheet. It contains zero plastic liners, synthetic resins, or chemical sealing coatings. The metal is inherently non-porous and food neutral.
will titanium cutting boards dull my kitchen knivesGrade 1 titanium is a softer metal than hardened knife cutlery steel, allowing blades to bite without chipping. While regular honing remains normal kitchen maintenance, the board yields slightly rather than blunting edges prematurely. Fine cosmetic track marks will appear on the board face over time.
how to clean and care for titanium boardWash the board with regular kitchen soap, a soft sponge, and warm water after cutting raw proteins or produce. It is also completely dishwasher safe and withstands high sanitizing heat cycles without bending. Dry it with a cloth or stand it vertically in a dish rack.
