I won it at a Japanese online auction. It was the biggest kaya cutting board I have come upon. It's not perfect as it has a slight crack at one of the bottom edge and some slight imperfection at the bottom but it was still quite attractive to me.
If you work with a Japanese buying agent, I have found another place which sells kaya cutting boards as well but they are smaller sized. That brand seems to be available on Rakuten as well but seems to be through a reseller at a slightly higher price. I found it as I was doing research on how to buy one of these beauties.
http://www.kayanomori.com/SHOP/20839/29917/list.htmlThe photos of the sample boards sure look beautiful with straight lines much like gobans, but I wonder if the board you order from this company actually will come with such a pattern. I would guess that it wouldn't be such a pattern, but nevertheless still a beauty. In the end, I wouldn't know because I have never ordered from this company before. So good luck and if you do get one, please post pix and let us know
