Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our authentic Japanese cutlery.
What makes Tokyo Knives different from standard kitchen knives?
Our knives are forged using traditional Japanese techniques and high-carbon steel, resulting in a thinner, sharper edge and superior edge retention compared to mass-produced Western blades.
How should I maintain and sharpen my knives?
We recommend hand-washing only and drying immediately to prevent oxidation. For sharpening, use a whetstone rather than a honing steel to preserve the precise geometry of the blade.
Do you offer international shipping?
Yes, we ship our premium cutlery worldwide. Shipping times vary by destination, but most international orders arrive within 7-14 business days.
What is your return policy?
We offer a 30-day satisfaction guarantee. If you are not completely happy with your purchase, you can return the unused knife in its original packaging for a full refund.
Are these knives suitable for professional chefs?
Absolutely. Tokyo Knives are designed to meet the rigorous standards of professional kitchens while being accessible enough for home enthusiasts who value precision.
Do the knives come with a warranty?
Yes, every Tokyo Knife is backed by a limited lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship.
