We recommend using a whetstone to sharpen your knives.

We have a range on our website and also have some articles on our blog, which talk you through the best way to look after and sharpen your knives, including recommended angles, etc

Knives should never go in the dishwasher. Dishwasher detergent is very abrasive, and along with the banging around that happens during a wash cycle, will take the sharp edge right off your knife. The high heat can also damage the handle or misshape them. Always wash knives by hand in the sink with dish soap and water and dry after.

If for any reason you are not completely satisfied with your purchase, within 30 days of placing your order, we will refund you for your purchase with no questions asked.

Gorgeous knife

Absolutely love the knives I purchased. They are beautiful to look at and very, very sharp. Cooking is a joy with these knives. Very happy, hope to get the rest of them soon!

A piece of art

This knife is perfectly balanced and very sharp. Though costly, I can see the workmanship that has gone into making it, and can understand the price. The handle is beautiful, and the steel has a gorgeous pattern to it; it is a joy to look at. I look forward to enjoying its use for many years to come and will invest in some more matching knives over time.

The service from Santoku was excellent. Thank you.

Work of art

My daughter and her fiancé bought us these fabulous knives for Christmas. After failing to find a knife block I was happy with I decided to make my own. An old frame, some rubber coated wall magnets and some Matt paint later and our knives now being displayed as the beautiful works of art they are. 🤩
