Hasegawa Pro-PE Wood Core Cutting Board - FPEL Series (Black)
Hasegawa Pro-PE Wood Core Cutting Board - FPEL Series (Black)
The Hasegawa FPEL Series (Black Edition) is a professional-grade cutting board designed for precision and high contrast. Unlike the softer FRK series, this board features a Polyethylene (PE) surface that is slightly harder, providing the stability and smooth feedback required for delicate tasks like slicing sushi and sashimi.
The board is constructed with Hasegawa's signature wood core, which prevents warping and reduces weight by approximately 30-50% compared to solid plastic boards. The black surface offers excellent visual contrast, making it easier to see ingredients clearly during preparation. It is fully dishwasher safe and bleach compatible for superior hygiene.
This board is available in multiple sizes. Please select your desired size from the options.
