Kamikoto experience
November 2, 2019

The 13inch Yaganiba Kamikoto knife is very useful for me.
I am just extra careful to use it as it is very sharp.
I am very happy with it.

Lovely, heavy knives!
October 28, 2019

An incredibly nice company with which to work. Knives come in beautifully crafted wooden boxes and they're heavy like little swords! As I find is typical of dealing with Japanese companies, they are very gracious and humble and eager to please.

SHARP knives
October 21, 2019

These knives are no joke when it comes to sharpness. My husband was using one for the first time and darn near sliced through his finger by just pushing the knife a few inches back on the cutting board. He thought it was the back of the blade but it was the cutting edge. I mean if you are looking for sharp knives, these are probably the gold standard. Well worth the price!
