Great Knife
March 1, 2026

I have bought a lot of knives from Kamikoto and have been very satisfied with them. They are very sharp and keep their sharpness for a long time. I have even given a set to my sister-in-law and she liked them very much.

Having the right tools in the kitchen makes the experience of preparing meals so much better And the knives are incredibly beautiful, balanced and sharp. I bought the extra set to give as a gift. They are a joy to use.

Outstanding customer service!
November 21, 2025

I have had my set of knives for 8 years now and I recently noticed some spots of rust on one of the blades. The entire set of three knives was replaced. I couldn't be happier. This is a wonderful company to do business with.

The knives this company creates are remarkable works of art and science best used frequently and daily. I had absolutely zero design notes for previous iterations and somehow this company STILL manages to iterate and improve between models. I feel genuine excitement thinking about what's to come from them and I also enthusiastically recommend reaching out if you have reason to do so, their customer support is top notch in promptness, politeness, follow through, and an overall genuine respect for the customer's needs.

Exquisite
August 21, 2025

The knives are exquisitely made. Light and cut with precision. I have yet to use the knife sharpening stone but I feel for the price of these it is well worth it. The packaging is beautiful too.

Customer service beyond excellent!
August 9, 2025

I have a set of Kamikoto knives that I've owned for about three years and they have been working excellent but the handles were starting to show some inconsistent wear. I shared pictures with Customer Service and they agreed that it was strange and they sent me out a brand new set immediately. No questions asked very friendly and a wonderful company to deal with. I could not be happier with my new knife set!

I have been buying Kamikoto knives for years, both for myself and for gifts. After having made good use of four steak knives for several years, one knife was used too hard and broke. I contacted Kamikoto and asked for an extra replacement knife, if I bought another set of four. They sent me a replacement knife in one of their beautiful wooden boxes. They did not insist on my buying more knives. What a pleasure to deal with such a vendor. I will be buying more from Kamikoto.

Ordering was easy and price was great. We have bought several knives as gifts over the last 3-4 years and have always been pleased with the quality of the knives. They are 5*. Delivery was seamless and quick.
