Elevate the aroma and spiciness of fresh wasabi with our handmade premium sharkskin grater. Unlike metal graters, this traditional tool expertly breaks down wasabi without adding any unwanted metallic flavor, resulting in a creamy texture and authentic taste.
Samegawa (鮫皮) refers to sharkskin, which has been prized in Japan for centuries as the ideal surface for grating. Its fine, rough texture allows for effective grating of ingredients like wasabi and ginger, helping to fully release their natural flavors and aromas. Each grater is carefully handmade by skilled artisans, preserving the traditional method while ensuring outstanding quality and durability.
With a cord attachment, this handcrafted piece is more than just a kitchen tool—it’s a must-have for true connoisseurs who appreciate authenticity and craftsmanship.
In addition to wasabi, you can also use it to grate ginger, radish, and other ingredients, allowing you to savor their true essence with every use.

Amazing hand cream and service
My son bought Yuzu Premiu hand cream for me on a recent trip to Japan and I LOVE it. Couldn’t find it for sale in Australia so ordered online from Nihon Kara. Postage cost was very reasonable as was the price of the cream. Plus small gift was enclosed. Prompt delivery. I’m so happy with Nihon Kara.
