Are you using chopsticks that are right for you? Have you ever bought chopsticks without giving them much thought, or picked up chopsticks that were left out and thought they were "short" or "long," or that they were a little slippery? That could be because the chopsticks' shape or length isn't right for you! Are there even chopsticks that are right for you? I'm sure many of you have wondered this. In fact, there are chopsticks that fit the length of your fingers. If you're starting a new life or thinking about buying new chopsticks, this is a must-read!!How to choose the right chopsticks for you!
・Use a ruler to find the chopstick length that suits you!
First, take a look at the image below!
As you can see, the length of chopsticks that suits you will vary depending on the size of your hand and the length of your fingers! First, follow the image and measure your chopsticks with a ruler, with your thumb and index finger at a right angle! Once you know the size that suits you, be sure to buy chopsticks that fit you the next time you buy new ones!
-What size chopsticks can anyone use without any problems?
The common lengths are as follows:
Unisex = around 22.5cm
For women = around 21cm
For men = around 23cm
Children's size: approx. 18cm (around 10 years old)
As you can see, most commercial chopsticks found in stores are between 18cm and 23cm in size because the sizes listed above are the standard sizes.
Although these are general lengths, they vary depending on the size of your hand and the length of your fingers, so it's okay to just think of it as "roughly the average"!

Did you know that the way you hold chopsticks is noticed by others more than you might think? Perhaps it's the fate of Japanese people, but why is it that we can't help but notice when we see someone holding chopsticks in a strange way?

But let's practice slowly.
My personal tip is to never move the chopsticks that you are holding with your ring finger.
The rest is just training.
What is the easiest shape to hold chopsticks?
There are quite a lot of different shapes of chopstick handles available these days!
There are many shapes available these days, from the commonly sold round shape to polygonal shapes like triangles, squares, and octagons, as well as ones with recessed handles that make them less slippery! Round shapes are better suited to practice than polygonal shapes, but they can be a little slippery...
The more points there are on the chopsticks, the easier it is to hold them with your ring finger, making it easier to find chopsticks that don't tire you out.
