Knife was sharp out of the box and the quality is great. It feels amazing to use.

Knife was not clean , had finger marks, smuges, no sharp at all. would not cut paper at the front of the knife, it cut on the back part of the knife. i was very dissapointed, i was really looking foward to spectacular knife. i would suggest taking ore pride in the craftmenship of what would have been part of a collection.

An excellent experience from start to finish. The entire process was handled with great professionalism, precision, and care. Ordering was simple and straightforward, delivery was fast and reliable, and the customer service was exceptionally helpful and responsive throughout.

The knives themselves are of outstanding quality, with excellent craftsmanship and attention to detail. They fully met – and even exceeded – my expectations.

I am extremely satisfied with both the products and the service, and I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for high-quality Japanese knives and a truly professional purchasing experience.

Combined with the Nigara Hamono VG-XEOS Gyuto Knife 225 mm these are my first original japanese knifes and i love the design and the sharpness itself. I hope their lasts very long in my hands. The delivery was very fast and without any problems. I've decided that if I need more knives, I'll reach out to you again. Thx a lot

Take it real it's perfect knife.. Just take it if you want something cut like razor and if you sharping it's very easy to take again new cut.. perfect knife 100%

An excellent knife, light, well balanced and easy to use.

なるほどなぁ。まぁこんなもんかぁ、って程度の切れ味
期待してたけど。ガッカリだなぁ。
これでこの価格かぁ。う～ん、無いかなぁ。

Love my new knife. I use it every day and the blade is superior to anything I have used before. I ordered it after watching how these knives are made by dedicated craftsman. I received the knife beautifully packaged too.

The incredible Ignite knife. This is without doubt the finest knife I have ever owned for camping and hunting use. The finish and design is exceptional and lends itself to all aspects of hunting including skinning and game preparation. I would highly recommend this artisans knife to anyone wanting the very best of design and functionality.

Love the knife, functional and meaningful knowing that it is made by extra-ordinary craftsmen. Enjoy using it a great deal.
Full disclosure - these are not complaints, just 2 points to note - the knife did arrive with rust on it, and after first gentle wash, rinse and dry, rusty spots were still present, but having googled, realised that some lemon juice soak and wipe did fix it, so maintenance is key. Secondly, the order comes with free stone, but we don't actually need it, so it would be great if it can be an optional thing as the weight and cost do add to the overall shipment and hence increase the un-necessary import tax and duties - in other words, I would have opted for not having the complimentary stone to also save on extra import duties charges incurred because of the extra weight and cost listed to have included the heavy stone.
Again these are not complaints, just points for continuous improvements, I would be happy to buy again from your store. Many thanks again and keep up all your great work on YT!

Excellent knife no regret buying it

Of all the blacksmiths on the JFC YouTube channel Nakamura is my favorite. If you watch him and don't smile you have no soul. Is it the fanciest knife, no. Is it sharp, yes. It has a good profile and does what a knife should do. The little imperfections remind you this is handmade. I smile every time I use it thinking of the blacksmith who made it. Very happy.
Thank you.

It´s my first original japanese knife and i love the design and the sharpness itself. I hope it lasts very long in my hands. The delivery was very fast and without any problems. I've decided that if I need more knives, I'll reach out to you again. Thx a lot

Sehr gutes Messer
Lieferung nach Deutschland Zoll Einführgebür beachten !

Super sharp. I was impressed!

Ich bin etwas mehr als enttäuscht.
Das Messer selber ist hervorragend! Marketing, Verarbeitung, Verpackung, vom Feinsten.
Was mich über alle maße ärgert ist das bei ich über 150€ !!! an Zoll und Steuern zahlen musste. Ganz ehrlich, wenn man das vorher angemerkt hätte, hätte ich das Messer nicht gekauft. Das steht in keinem Verhältnis.
Als Unternehmen sollte man auch auf diese Umstände hinweisen.

Ich hatte vor mir noch das eine oder andere Messer von zu bestellen, aber davon nehme ich Abstand.
Die Freude über dieses wirklich tolle Messer ist mehr als getrübt.
