"Founded in 1998 and working with master blacksmiths in Japan, the Japanese Knife Company stocks an impressive collection of high-end chefs knives which are often really beautiful objects. The staff are highly knowledgeable about the products and their manufacture, and you can test the knives out, being shown the correct way to hold and cut. They also offer a knife-sharpening service using the traditional wet stone method." - Hyperkit
My son and I have just finished one of their knife sharpening masterclasses.
Fascinating, informative and productive.
If you are thinking of purchasing one of the high quality Japanese knives they sell, I'd suggest you'd benefit hugely from adding their knife care and sharpening classes to your basket.
Jay and his team are wonderful.

I visited last week to buy a chef's knife for my nephew's 18th birthday. I had done my research so I knew more or less what I wanted but Miyumi was wonderful in giving me advice and although I stuck with the same knife brand I had intended to buy, she did offer me an alternative sontoku shape, which I was enamoured with and chose to purchase instead. The service was all around friendly and welcoming. The engraving was free and took less than 10 minutes. The first knife sharpening service is also free. Beautiful ceramics and other Japanese homeware on sale too.

Very nice staff, and a really nice selection of both knives and other Japanese products (bonsai scissors, books, chopsticks, and so on). Bought a knife and got free engraving!
