According to Porch,over 322 000 emergency room visits occur each year because of kitchen accidents. To lower this number, brands such as Iconix should consider the Japanese Chopper Hand. It allows you to slice and dice food without putting your hands at risk.

A hand is attached to the cutting board in the exact same place where a chef’s hand would be. The cutting board is designed to allow you to chop without ever cutting your finger. This cutting board is not sold with the knife. Even the nails on the hands can be painted to make them more realistic.
