Kamakura NaFro Ninja Board

Roll-up kitchen chopping mat

The word "ninja" has all the connotations in Japan it has in the rest of the world, including the ability to transform, hide, and excel at many different tasks. This is the reason the craftspeople of Tsubame-Sanjo in Niigata Prefecture, known for its cutlery and metalworking tradition, chose it for their Kamakura NaFro Ninja Board: this is far more versatile than any other kitchen chopping mat or board you'll find on the market, and can perform under very different conditions, including when camping!

The first thing that makes the Kamakura NaFro Ninja Board different is that it's foldable: it unrolls into a 20 x 27.8 x 4 cm (7.9 x 10.9 x 1.6") mat and when you're done, you can roll it back up for storing almost anywhere, including your backpack when you're camping. The second is that it features two cutting sides, one flat and one uneven, which helps keep slippery ingredients in place. And the third feature is that since it's foldable, it's easier to slide the chopped and diced ingredients into the pot. Use the Kamakura NaFro Ninja Board once and you'll wonder how you were ever able to cook without it!
