Customer Reviews
The owner of this store has created an amazing atmosphere in his store with his passion about Japanese knives. I came in unsure of a knife to buy and he quickly gave me a few options about what he thought would be best for me. A add-on feature that I love is the personal handle you can choose for your knife which makes it yours. A great place to get Japanese knives or to learn about the process and culture of Japanese knife making.
