This assembly technique, long used on Japanese professional knives and chopsticks, lets the object last years of intensive kitchen use. The wooden handle also insulates against heat, useful for plating a dish that is still warm just before serving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy I chose them\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"I chose these chopsticks because they illustrate those very simple Japanese utensils that quickly become indispensable. Their length and precision let you handle food with a lot of control, notably for serving or turning certain preparations.
