A new skill gained!

Harry was a very instructional and entertaining guide through the whole process. Walking away from this experience with no only a functioning knife but also the method to maintain all kitchen knives from now on. 10/10 would do again

Great thing to do with a family with teenagers

If you enjoy cooking or knives, this is the place for you! Japan is well known for their knives and having a place where you can learn how to appropriately sharpen a kitchen knife and walk away with it was great! There is an up charge for some of the bigger knives but no need to feel like you need to pay it. The knife included with your purchase is already good.

Operator response

Thank you so much for your comment. It is nice to hear that the way we introduced upgrade knives were not something that could pressure you, but more so to allow our guests to have more option! BAC BAC Japan
