A Japanese butter knife made from kurinoki (chestnut wood) for Marumitsu Poterie. With a long handle and flat blade, it's perfect paired with a butter dish at breakfast or on a cheese board.

Each knife carries Marumitsu Poterie's signature mark branded on the back. Chestnut wood is highly durable and water-resistant, with a long history of use in Japan, where it was traditionally used for house foundations and railroads, and its clear grain gives a warm, rustic feel.

More from the Kurinoki range: the Chestnut Wood Tea Scoop and Chestnut Soup Spoon.
