Produces excellent wood for a long time,

Tsukechi-cho, Nakatsugawa City, Gifu Prefecture, is known as the home of the sacred trees of the Ise Jingu Shikinen Sengu.

Any tree is an important resource.

It is considered from the sawing stage so that it can be used without waste.

Wild cherry trees, which are broad-leaved trees, do not produce tar and have a beautiful bark.

Because it is hard and solid, it is hard to be scratched, and the more it is used, the more it grows to a brown color.

It is the perfect material for everyday tools.

*Because natural wood is used, the wood grain and color may vary.

*There may be knots or scratches.

[Cleaning method]
● Wood also needs moisture, so if it feels dry and rough, or if the surface feels whitish, please give it some oil.
Walnut oil works best, but olive oil works too.
After applying a small amount and blending it with your hands, wipe off any excess oil with a cloth.

● Depending on the item, the surface may become brittle after washing.
In that case, after completely drying, lightly rub the surface with sandpaper of about 600.
After rubbing, apply oil as described above and wipe off to complete.

[Precautions for handling]
●When washing, please use a neutral detergent and hand wash.
Avoid using the dishwasher. Please be careful not to rub too much with a scrubbing brush or sponge, etc. After washing, wipe off the water thoroughly and dry it.
●Do not soak in water for a long time or expose to direct sunlight.
●Do not sterilize by boiling. Cannot be used in a microwave oven.
