Touroku Sakai Moribashi Plating Chopsticks – Magnolia Handle
type: Product
description: Taka Kitano leads Touroku Sakai, continuing a three-generation family legacy while working with skilled craftsmen throughout Japan to preserve and advance the tools of Japanese culinary tradition. These traditional Moribashi plating chopsticks are crafted in Sakai City, Japan by Akimasa Ohe, a second-generation Sakai craftsman with more than 30 years of experience in the Japanese cutlery industry. Known for his meticulous handle fitting and hand engraving, Ohe-san brings the same attention to detail found in fine Japanese kitchen knives to one of the most precise tools used in professional plating. Moribashi, also traditionally known as Manabashi, are specialized Japanese chef's chopsticks designed for the delicate placement, adjustment, and presentation of food. Their slender stainless steel tips provide far greater precision than standard wooden chopsticks, allowing chefs to position garnishes, herbs, individual ingredients, and finishing elements exactly where they belong without unnecessarily disturbing the rest of the plate. The fine tips are particularly useful for Japanese cuisine, sushi presentation, kaiseki, pastry work, fine dining, and any plating application where accuracy and control matter. Their extended reach also allows the hand to remain comfortably away from the plate, giving the chef a clear view of the work while making minute adjustments. A traditional magnolia wood handle with a water buffalo horn ferrule provides a lightweight, natural feel in hand while maintaining the refined aesthetic associated with Japanese culinary tools. The transition from wood to horn to stainless steel creates a balanced construction designed for controlled, deliberate movement. Crafted in Sakai City under the Touroku Sakai name, these Moribashi represent a specialized Japanese culinary tool built around precision rather than decoration. Whether finishing sashimi, placing microgreens, arranging delicate garnishes, or adding caviar and other intricate finishing touch…
