Beautiful knife. Easy shipping to the US without any issues.

A beautifully made knife. Just the right weight and very sharp. Did have to wait a long time, but worth it.

Handmade fruit knife by Tsutomu Takahashi. The functionality, sharpness of the knife hasn't disappointed me and has been great. Thank you.

Beautiful handmade Nakiri by Sadamasa and very sharp. Extremely happy with the knife. Thank you.

First time purchasing from this website and my experience was pleasant! One of the sharpest knives I’ve used to date. I was hesitant at first about the 1-3 month wait but it was definitely worth it and I’ll be purchasing even more knives from here soon.

I first learned of Sadamasa through a knife distributor out of Canada I purchased the petty knife from them and fell in love with the look and the incredible sharpness I tried to go back to the same distributor and purchase a second knife but they were quickly sold out fortunately now through this site you can order and buy directly from Japan and from this incredible knife maker it took a while but I received my knife and them more than happy with this beautiful blade it is the sharpest knife I own out of 25 knives from different knife makers that I have in my collection

Hisato helped me answer all of my questions and was great to work with. I am in love with my knife! High recommend using Ichie Hamono and Yamamoto-san

The ebony handle is quite nice and overall this santoku has some heft to it. Gives plenty of confidence when cutting. The edge was sharp and it glides through a lot of ingredients without feeling too delicate. A well made knife and I'm glad to have purchased!

Came in quicker than expected, good packaging and well crafted. High quality steel and the knife was everything I expected. Well done Sadamasa!
