I had been curious about switching to Japanese cutlery for a while but the price had always put me off. Finally i found a great knife for my price point. The handle is super sleek with the black coloring and silver accents.The layered blade really stands out in my kitchen. I love how sharp it is. The thinner blade and tighter angle of the Japanese cutlery really makes a difference in my cooking. I get nice thin slices and accurate cuts.

I use this knife every day and it is always within my reach. The FC61 steel plus the special ice-hardening, make this a super sharp knife that will retain its sharpness for longer periods of time, and is very durable. The Traditional D-shape handle is so comfortable it actually reduces the stress on your wrists, for more comfortable use.

Edge starts sharp/stays sharp! VG10 steel wrapped with 64 beautiful layers makes every one unique. Mikarta handle stays new-looking and hand honed in Japan as well!

I have never seen a more beautiful knife! I just love being able to use a work of art to cook with everyday. The blade is so sharp and the design is gorgeous. I love how this is handcrafted and no two knives are the same. I would recommend this knife to anyone who is looking for a work of art that you can use.

I am in love, this knife feels so elegant and cuts like a dream. The steel that they use in this knife is so strong, my husband works around metal and was so impressed that it could be used in such a beautiful fashion. The handle is smooth, sits back the perfect amount from the blade edge and the Damascus jacket protecting the hard center steel is so rich looking! A knife to cherish for a lifetime!

The core is created from VG10 steel which is a high carbon stainless steel that is east to sharpen to a razor sharp edge. Then it has a 65 layer damascus pattern to create the beauty. The handle is Micarta Linen which has a wood grain look without any of the downfalls that wood has like expanding or cracking. Be sure to hand wash and dry this beautiful knife to keep it looking and performing its best.

This Kaizen 8 inch chef, may be thin like most Asian style knives, but this one is tough! Through its manufacturing process, it is sure to be resilient. I love using this knife, it cuts like butter and is a beauty to look at. Worth the investment.

Another great Miyabi knife with both style and performance that is top-of-the-line! Love the Damascus design & the 65 layer process. Thin but strong blade, due to the ice-hardening process. Handle looks wooden, but is actually black linen Micarta. Everyone should own at least 1 Miyabi Chef knife!

Bought as my first Japanese knife. Perfect for getting use to and understanding the maintenance in using higher grade Japanese steels with sharper cutting edges.

Kaizen is an outstanding Japanese chef knife. I love that I can purchase a knife that is made and sold in Japan...authentic! It has the traditional D shaped handle that fits nicely in your hand. And the Damascus blade is stunning; so cool to have all those layers protecting the knife. It also has the true Japanese edge making it incredible sharp which allows it to stand up to even the most delicate cutting tasks.

When will my item arrive?
Once shipped, items usually arrive within 3-5 business days. While UPS and FedEx are our carriers for smaller items, be aware that larger items and orders are shipped via freight. The freight process is a bit more complicated than what we've all come to expect for small parcels, so it's important that you're prepared and understand what's required of you well before delivery day.
- Most freight products ship on a pallet
- Some carriers will call to schedule a delivery window, while others will deliver the shipment to a reasonably accessible location closest to your residence (their goal is to deliver as near a garage door as they can).
- We'll specify which process you can expect in your shipping confirmation email.
For carriers that schedule delivery appointments:
Carriers that schedule delivery appointments require you to be home for delivery and provide your signature. The delivery is made with a semi-truck with lift gate services, and the shipment is dropped off at the curb. If you authorize the shipping company to leave the delivery without a signature, BBQGuys can't be held responsible for damages that occur during delivery. As complicated as this process may seem, we've only scratched the surface here — please review our detailed guide to freight delivery so there are no surprises when a freight shipment heads your way.
For carriers that deliver without an appointment:
Carriers that deliver without an appointment don't require you to be home or set up a delivery window, and you aren't required to sign for the pallet(s). Instead of scheduling an appointment, arranging your schedule to be home for the delivery, and signing to confirm receipt, you can sit back and let your items come to you. If you're home at the time of the drop-off, you can request the driver place your delivery in the garage; if you're out of the house, the driver will leave it near the garage or doorstep.
