Beautifully packed in the wooden boxes. Loved how sharp they are. Nice weight in hand. Gave same as gifts to my children and grandchildren.
I'm disappointed in these knives as they do not hold an edge for more than a few cuts. They look good, feel substantial in the hand but I have to resharpen them after chopping a few broccoli or carrots
While I was drying off one of my knives, it snapped in half. I took a picture of the knife emailed the company on a holiday weekend. They replied later that night, and shipped me a new set which I received within three business days! Talk about standing by your product.
I purchased the 7-inch Damascus Santoku knife - hands down the sharpest knife I have ever owned. Fantastic for chopping herbs, slicing tomatoes, dicing chicken... anything requiring a delicate, accurate touch. Very well balanced, great handle and an overall good size for any task. If you have one knife in your drawer, it should be this one.
Tip for consumers:
Site is excellent... and I used to develop websites.

I bought several knife sets for Christmas presents. Of course I had to buy one for myself as well. Everyone loved the gifts and I found the knives to be very sharp and used them immediately in place of my old knives.
I needed a new set of steak knives that were actually worth what I spend. Having bought Kamikoto knives in the past I knew right where to go and pleased to find a GREAT set of knives!
I got this as a gift to my husband he loved it and that makes me happy! Great quality and beautiful finning.
Kamikoto is an incredible brand. I wish to own the whole Knife set someday. I own a few pieces now and I Love them. When one of my specialty knives got damaged they replaced it for me. That is incredible service. I am so very grateful and give them 5 stars for quality, commitment, and service.
Thank you Kamikoto
We got the three knive set and when it came one of the wood case hinges wasn't letting the case close very nice. Maybe damaged in transit I'm not sure. I contacted them with my concerns and they send me a new case via FedEx two days later, the new case was perfect and now the knives are stored and displayed in the way they were intended. Thanks Kamikomo, I'm one happy customer.
As I stated earlier, I bought a set of Kamikoto Knife's using a code from a you tuber I watch. They arrived very quickly to America. The Beauty of the Knives were fantastic. The HandMade Boxes the Knives arrived in were the best craftmanship. I had the Knives for a couple of days when I decided to order another set for a Chef in my area. The Chef was stunned by my generosity & equally stunned by the Beauty of the Knives. He decided to take the Knives home to use so he didn't have to share them. As you can tell, I am very pleased with my purchase.

I received my Senshi knife set recently. The packaging, wooden box and display stand were a pleasure to behold. The knives are works of art - precision made, well balanced, sharp as a razor, sleek hygienic design, and branded with quality text and graphics. I would have paid twice the price if I knew how well received they were going to be. It is a joy to use these knives for food preparation. Do not be fooled by cheaper products which certainly will not carry the Japanese standard of perfection or instill such a feeling of respect for the makers. They are my katana and wakizashi of the kitchen! Very happy.
Tip for consumers:
Do not be hesitant to communicate with Kamikoto. They are professional, honest, respectful and proud manufacturers of quality products.

Recently, I received a few sets of Kamikoto knives as a gift. To this point, I have been thoroughly impressed with the quality of the product; they are by far the best knives I've owned or used.
When addressing one minor issue that I had, the customer service team was exceptional. Their responsiveness, cordiality, and respectfulness was absolutely incomparable, and they were able to resolve the issue with diligence and ease.
I would recommend this company and their products to anyone without hesitation.
We had some problems that did not depend on the seller, yet the seller went head over heels to help us solve it. The products are, so far, absolutely fantastic. More than satisfied.
I'd never spent the money on a nice set of knives so I was hesitant to purchase this set. However, after listening to several people, I took the chance. I am extremely happy that I did! The knives are stylish and well-designed. I will be purchasing from Kamikoto again.
Thank you!
I received my knives very quickly, but the sharpening stone wasn't with them. A quick email was all that was needed to get it taken care of.
Very impressed and I will now buy all of my knives from Kamikoto. I am also pleased that they are sponsoring a special 2A video blogger, Langley Outdoor Sports.
Thank you for the great deal and a perfect customer care experience.
Wonderful set of cutlery! One suggestion for you though: Have storage rack for ready access... just a thought
I am delighted with these knives. They are a fantastic addition to my kitchen. They combine a handsome box, they feel great in my hands, and they are SHARP. That is a great combination. I recommend them.

I was really happy to buy a set of knifes but unfortunately after waiting more than 2 months to received them i had to cancel the order.
The only positive thing was that the refund was.made very quick.
A shame I couldn't get the knives.
Best Regards

I've had a couple issues with the blades chipping. However, there is a lifetime warranty and EVERYTIME my email was answered in less than 24hrs and new knives shipped. The Kade definitely feels heavier and more sturdy.
They look great, love the packagingas well. I am not a professional chef but my son-in-law is and I usually buy both of us one for Christmas. Love the buy one get one deals! The cleaver and the fillet are my favorites so far.

These knives are 100% quality. The Japanese Artisans have integrity and honour with respect to their workmanship which promotes long lasting and fantastic products.
I ordered Kuro set for a gift and received somewhat flawed one. Their customer service immediately answered to my email and asked some pictures of the item. After examining the pictures, they immediately replaced the flawed one. I really appreciate their quick action. However, Kuro set was not extremely sharp as much as I expected compared to their other single beveled knives although they advertised as best knife ever amongst their products. Overall, I was satisfied their customer service but have a question mark on the Kuro set.
Profesionales y calidad de producto acorde con el precio
Quatlity is very good! I recommend and I'm very satisfied.
