Brilliant service with great advise and products. Out of the menny styles and brands around Japanese kifes, sharp chef chooses a great selection with zero fiffaff. I've had a few kifes off this store and each one has made me very happy at a very good price. No need to import and pay extra fees when sharp chef has your back!!

Simply fantastic

Fantastic product. The knife was a gift for a good friend & he just couldn't be happier with it. This is likely the beginning of a set.

Best knives ever.

Best knives ever.
i used to be in catering for over 25 years working in many prestigious hotels and restaurants back in the early 70's and 80's. your knives were without doubt the most important equipment a chef can possess. over the years i have had many top brand knives. My purchase from the Sharp Chef has really been inspiring. i am again loving my cooking using what i consider to be the best knives i have ever purchased. Just simply cutting an onion into fine dice is unbelievable and makes me smile as one can hardly feel any resistance to the blade cutting through the onion. they are not only incredibly sharp, a real joy to work with but look unique and quite awesome. i would recommend any serious cook or chef to invest in these fabulous knives.

My brother received the knife I ordered through your site for his 50th and was very happy. Prompt delivery, and the knife itself is apparently excellent. I did not see any gift option available on the website which might be something to consider - a bit weird to send a knife as a gift perhaps but for some folk it makes sense :)

Bought for a friend

Bought for a friend. They love it.
Due to covid 19 and the postal service, the package tracker wasn't quite saying exactly what was going on. I contacted The Sharp Chef via email and they responded very quickly, explaining the situation and how they were going to help the package progress. This was a actioned swiftly and soon my friend had a delightfully sharp Japanese knife in their hand.
