Japanese Knife Accessories, Kitchen Tools & Woodworking Supplies

A great knife is only as good as the care and environment around it. In the All Accessories category you will find everything you need to complete your knife setup - from the cutting surface beneath the blade to the tools that keep it sharp, stored safely, and ready to use. Whether you are equipping a professional kitchen, building a woodworking workshop, or looking after your garden tools, this is the place to start.

Japanese Knife Accessories - Everything in One Place

Knives of Japan offers a carefully selected range of knife accessories and kitchen tools chosen to complement high-quality Japanese blades. Each subcategory brings together products that serve a specific purpose, so you can build a complete setup piece by piece or find exactly what you are missing. From professional kitchen essentials to traditional Japanese craft tools, every product in this category is selected with the same attention to quality that defines our knife and sharpening stone range.

Cutting Boards for Japanese Knives

The surface you cut on has a direct impact on your knife's edge. In the Cutting Boards section you will find boards made from materials that are gentle on high-carbon and stainless steel blades - including end-grain wood, hinoki cypress, and other knife-friendly surfaces used in both professional and home kitchens. Choosing the right cutting board is one of the simplest ways to protect your knife and extend its sharpness between sharpenings.

Knife Storage - Blocks, Magnetic Strips and Knife Rolls

Storing knives correctly is just as important as sharpening them. Improper storage can damage the edge, shorten the blade's lifespan, and create safety hazards in the kitchen. The Knife Storage section includes magnetic knife strips, knife blocks, individual blade guards, and traditional Japanese knife rolls and bags - practical solutions for keeping your knives safe, organised, and always within reach.

Kitchen Accessories and Cooking Tools

Beyond knives and cutting boards, a well-equipped kitchen relies on a range of supporting tools. The Kitchen Accessories section covers items that pair naturally with Japanese knives - from useful preparation tools to finishing touches that make cooking more enjoyable and efficient. Whether you are setting up a home kitchen or adding to a professional workspace, you will find practical, well-made additions here.

Japanese Woodworking Tools - Chisels, Planes and Hand Saws

Japanese craftsmanship extends well beyond the kitchen. The Woodworking Tools section brings together traditional hand tools rooted in the same philosophy of precision and quality that defines Japanese knives. From chisels and hand planes to pull saws designed for fine joinery, these tools are built for accuracy and long-term performance - suitable for both experienced woodworkers and those just starting out with hand tools.

Japanese Gardening Tools - Hori-Hori, Pruning Shears and More

Japanese gardening tools are known for their efficiency, balance, and long-lasting durability. The Gardening Tools section includes hori-hori knives, pruning shears, weeding tools, and other implements designed for careful, precise work in the garden. Like all Japanese edge tools, they reward proper maintenance and sharpening - and many of the whetstones available in this store work just as well on garden tools as they do on kitchen knives.

Quality Accessories Worth Owning for the Long Term

All products in this category are selected with the same care and standard that guides our entire range at Knives of Japan. We focus on accessories that are practical, durable, and genuinely useful - tools and storage solutions that make a real difference in how you use, maintain, and enjoy your knives every day.

FAQ - Japanese Knife Accessories

Do I need special accessories for Japanese knives?

Not necessarily, but the right accessories make a real difference. Japanese knives benefit from knife-friendly cutting boards, careful storage that protects the edge, and proper sharpening tools. Using unsuitable cutting surfaces or storing knives loosely in a drawer can quickly damage a high-quality blade and shorten its lifespan significantly.

What type of cutting board is best for Japanese knives?

End-grain wooden boards and hinoki cypress boards are among the most recommended options for Japanese knives. They are gentle on the blade's edge compared to glass, ceramic, or hard plastic boards, which can cause micro-damage and dulling over time. Soft plastic boards can also work well for everyday use.

Can I use Japanese sharpening stones on gardening and woodworking tools?

Yes. Japanese water stones work well on a wide range of edge tools - not just kitchen knives. Chisels, hand plane blades, pruning shears, and hori-hori knives can all be sharpened using the same techniques and whetstones used for kitchen blades. This makes a good set of sharpening stones a versatile investment across the whole workshop and garden.

What is the safest way to store Japanese knives?

Magnetic knife strips, individual blade guards, and knife rolls are all safe and practical storage options. Knife blocks can also work well, provided the slots are wide enough not to drag along the cutting edge. Always avoid loose storage in drawers, where blades can knock against other utensils and become damaged.

Are Japanese woodworking and gardening tools suitable for beginners?

Yes. While many of the tools we carry are used by experienced craftspeople and gardeners, they are also an excellent starting point for beginners who want to invest in quality from the beginning. Well-made tools are easier and more satisfying to learn with, and they last far longer than cheaper alternatives.

What is the difference between knife storage options - blocks, strips, and rolls?

Each type of knife storage has its advantages. Magnetic strips keep knives visible and easily accessible while saving counter space. Knife blocks are a classic solution that works well on the countertop. Blade guards are ideal for protecting individual knives in a drawer or when travelling. Knife rolls and bags are the preferred choice for professional chefs who carry their knives between locations.
