Unlock the rich flavor of Japanese cuisine with the Medium Katsuobushi Shaver Box. Crafted from sturdy tamo wood with a durable oak base, it is fitted with a sharp Fujihide steel blade that delivers smooth, consistent shavings of katsuobushi (dried bonito). Freshly shaved flakes release an unmatched aroma and depth of umami, making them an essential ingredient for authentic dashi and miso soup.
This shaver box is designed with both tradition and practicality in mind. A pull-out drawer neatly collects the shavings, while an anti-slip sticker on the base ensures stability during use. Beyond soups, the light, fluffy flakes are delicious sprinkled over rice, tofu, or vegetables, adding savory character to everyday meals.
With its balance of professional-grade performance and thoughtful design, the Medium Katsuobushi Shaver Box brings the heritage of Japanese cooking into your own kitchen, transforming the way you prepare and enjoy food.
Authentic Taste: Fresh bonito shavings elevate dashi, miso soup, and everyday dishes with umami richness.

More Details
Tsubamesanjo
Located in Niigata Prefecture, Tsubamesanjo is one of Japan’s foremost centers of metal craftsmanship. The tradition began in the early Edo period, when local farmers began forging nails, forming a community of skilled metalworkers. Renowned for producing durable, finely crafted kitchenware and blades, the region now excels in stainless-steel kitchen tools, hand-hammered copperware, and finely sharpened knives. Each piece reflects generations of craftsmanship, admired for its enduring quality and precision.
Grater
Graters are essential kitchen tools to process ginger, wasabi, daikon, and mountain yam for Japanese condiments and recipes. Japanese hand graters are typically made from copper, aluminum, wood with sharkskin, stainless steel, or ceramic. They have sharp grating edges to help breakdown tough fibers, especially those in ginger and wasabi. These grating edges are either small or large to produce a coarse or fine texture for Japanese recipes.
