Expert Chefs & Collectorsexcellent purchase. Love the knife and the note u have written
Ever since I become aware of this fine knife over a year ago, I've been drooling all over it. After owning a few other sakimaru takohikis and still feeling wanting it, I finally pulled the trigger and bought the Rinka.
It is beautifully finished with mirror finishing on the hira and the proportion of the blade is just perfect. Compared with the other 390mm sakimaru takohiki I have, Rinka's blade shape is a bit slenderer, which is just the way I like it. I also love the cherry blossom and the poem engraved on the knife. The snug friction fit between the saya and the choil is a pleasant surprise, unlike other knives and sayas needing a pin to secure the saya to the knife. The lacquered finish of the saya and the handle is also beautifully done.
My order was shipped promptly and arrived within two days after I placed the order.
Overall, this has been a wonderful purchase !! No, this Rinka will never be used. It will sit on my shelf as a prized collector item.
Beautiful knife wnd packaged with care. Thank you so much.
TOP quality... light weight... perfect for my pocket...I use it for multiple uses.
Have always used much larger Debas. Didn't know what I was missing using a 120mm. Handles great and super sharp out of the box. Shipped immediately
Shipped very quickly; handles very well; super sharp out of the box and perfect for sashimi/sushi cuts
I discovered Artisan Japanese knives and Hasu-Seizo while visiting their display booth in Freemont WA. I've continued to purchase different blades finding that they are solid, extremely sharp (my son and I call them light sabers), and fit so well in the hand. The knives are excellent quality. I'm extremely happy with ordering from Hasu-Seizo. They are always responsive and the orders are filled very quickly. The personal touch for wrapping in Japanese newspaper and a note shows how much care and value is taken. This is my go to place for knives. Highly recommend.
I love this knife! It's by far my favorite knife!
I enjoyed a similar unwrapping experience as described by Richard in his comment. That thoughtfulness, care, and attentional to detail added significantly to my shopping experience. Now, to the knife. Remarkably sharp and beautifully made. I couldn't feel more pleased with my purchase.
I'm not sure what I love the most--the products or the store and people. The knives are absolutely stunning in every way. Exactly as pictured and described. But what I really loved was the personalized service! The knives had the cutest note included with them. Handwritten and personal. And the band aid was a great touch! Can't wait to order again!
Does what it is supposed to, and does it well.
I have always wanted a great kitchen knife. And I feel I got just that with this one. 10/10 would recommend
Tojiro shines bright for both young and adult chefs alike! Originally purchased for my 4 year old but functionally useful enough to be preferred by one of the adult chef's around. the non sharp rounded tip and heel combined with the sturdy profile and well designed grip are what sold me. Comes very sharp and is not a 'play' knife which is good in my book as it helps to teach the safety aspect of knives as soon as someone first starts handling them. 5/5 will probably purchase another
Fantastic quality knife and wonderful customer service. Very friendly to work with. Order arrived on time and in perfect condition. I would not hesitate to purchase additional knives.
Amazing knife and incredible craftsmanship. Will be buying more knives in the future
