Smash and slice the cucumbers. Lay the side of your knife on the cucumber and gently smash it with your hand, just enough to break the cucumber skin down the full length of it. You could also use a meat mallet. Then slice each cucumber on an angle and add to a colander.
Salt and drain the cucumbers. Place the colander in your sink. Sprinkle the salt over the cucumbers, massaging it in as you toss, and let drain for 10 to 15 minutes. Rinse the cucumbers in cold water, to remove the salt, and drain again.
Make the salad. Place the cucumbers in a large mixing bowl. Add the green onions, cilantro, and sesame seeds.
Make the dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together the sesame oil, tamari soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, garlic, and chili oil.
Mix the salad together. Pour the dressing on top of the salad, and toss together. Garnish with extra toasted sesame seeds.
