A sharp Japanese kitchen knife deserves a surface that matches its precision. Trusted by professional chefs across Japan, Hasegawa Pro-Soft Lite cutting boards are engineered to preserve the edge of your most delicate knives while providing a stable, hygienic prep surface.
The Ultimate Surface for Japanese Steel
Unlike standard plastic or hard wood boards, the FRK series features a specialized soft polyethylene surface. This unique "give" allows your knife edge to bite slightly into the board rather than bouncing off it, significantly extending the time between sharpenings. It is the gold-standard recommendation at Tokushu Knife for anyone using high-hardness steels like SG2, Blue #2, or AS.
Advanced Wood-Core Technology
Hasegawa’s signature wood-core construction makes these boards 30-50% lighter than solid plastic alternatives of the same size. The internal wood core provides exceptional rigidity and prevents warping, even after repeated cycles through high-temperature dishwashers, while the sealed polyethylene exterior ensures no moisture ever reaches the core.
Key Performance Features:
- Edge-Friendly Softness: Specifically designed to reduce impact on thin, brittle Japanese knife edges.
- Anti-Slip Grip: A specialized surface texture that prevents ingredients from sliding during precision tasks like katsuramuki or slicing sashimi.
- Lightweight Design: Easy to move, wash, and store, making it ideal for busy professional environments or home kitchens.
- Maximum Hygiene: Certified anti-bacterial in Japan and fully bleach-safe for easy sanitization.
- Heat Resistant: Rated for temperatures up to 194°F (90°C)—safe for both dishwashers and boiling water sterilization.
Technical Specifications:
- Material: Soft Polyethylene with an Internal Wood Core
- Color: Classic Beige
- Thickness: 0.8" (20mm)
- Origin: Made in Japan
- Certifications: SIAA Anti-Bacterial Certified
Note: For best results, we recommend using the Hasegawa Board Scraper to maintain the surface and remove any minor stains or deep cuts over time.
