The first handshake speaks to the the welcome we received at the new shop, a reflection of the ongoing kindness, professionalism, and support.
The second was given to me by the knife itself, on first contact. It was in the perfect finishing where the corian meets the tang, everywhere. It is also in the balance of this knife. You pinch it ever so slightly at te the very beginning of the blade, keep your grip light.... Hello!
It said it is designed for work. I have had it for a month now; it spoke the truth.
Yes, it's sharp out of the box, yadda yadda. Give it a little care on a whetstone, your own edge (mine is 60/40 at 8000 grit), and see how this workhorse responds. Amazing geometry, effortless.
Close your eyes and buy it..... and let the good people of Sharp Edge serve you. Your hand will thank you.
6 stars.

This is the second knife I have purchased from sharpedgeshop. The knife arrived promptly and in perfect condition. The knife is beautifully made and definitely worth the price. The pattern is slightly lighter than pictured but still very eye catching (see picture below). I purchased the knife with a leather saya. The saya is very well made but is designed for an 8 inch knife and is a bit too big.

If you’re into sharpening your own knives then you won’t go wrong with this kit. Perfect for beginners and intermediate level of sharpening. Would absolutely recommend Sharp Edge Shop. Great service, really fast delivery.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ this knife holder is something I had been looking for ages. Your common magnetic knife holder is a semi metal one and requires a drill and screws to mount to a wall.
This one is something extra. It’s wooden which in itself is not that uncommon. Good material against the metal. But it also has a strong 3M tape covering the whole of the back side and that is one strong tape.
This means that you don’t have to break your wall with screw holes which is nice if it is made of tiles. You just peel the tape cover off, adjust the location and make it level and then softly but firmly press it against your chosen spot. That’s it, very easy and it works perfectly.

The delivery was very fast and well packaged. Knife looks amazing, fit and finish is great and very sharp out of the box.

It is my first usuba so I can't really compare with other similar knives, but I'm really happy with it.
It's very nice looking, even better than in the pictures. It sits confortably in your hand and the weight is well balanced. The blade is quite heavier than a regular chef knife so it took me some times to get used to it, but I immediately enjoyed using it.
Except for a little fruit knife, that is also my first japanese knife and I can know understand all the love people have for them.

Now, about Sharpedge itself: the shipping was faster than I expected, the package was well made (I can't see how the knife could have been damaged during transport). That was my first time doing business with them, but they are now in my favourites.
