Bought a knife from here 3 years ago and finally getting it re-sharpened. Badass place. Hope to be back one day.

Autographs from many local celebrities tickled my curiosity and I ended up buying a knife, ear pick and portable nail cutter. I enjoyed watching my knife sharpened while the owner gave me detailed instructions on how to sharpen it at home. They provide knife sharpening services, which I'll be availing if the need arises.

前に若い店員さんと社長らしき方からとても感じの良い対応して頂き名前入りの包丁を2本購入しました。切れ味も最高で大切に
使ってました。暫く振りに研ぎ直しに伺うとても太った店員さんが入り口の椅子に座ってて威圧感が有り感じが悪く持ち帰りました。その方が居ない時に又伺います。

Great little shop. Knives made on site, sharpened, straightened and tested while you watch. They speak enough English to communicate with you pretty easily, and were accomodating when looking at the selection of different steel. Also, know there are two prices on part knives, one is white steel and the higher price is for the aogami blue steel, preferred as it is harder and the edge lasts longer.

外国人の観光客目当ての商売に感じた。

革包丁の36mmを購入したが、実際の刃幅は38mm。

翌日、電話で問合せしたら、1ｍｍの誤差は当たり前との事。
2mm違うと言ったら態度が変わって、研ぎ直すので持って来て欲しいと。

油性マジックで削る部分をマーキングして、グラインダーで削り、36mmに直してくれた。
刃の部分は研ぎ直さなくて良いのか聞いたところ、幅を変えただけなので、問題無いと言われた。

家に着いて革包丁を取り出すと、刃の部分に油性マジックが残っていた。
切れ味も前日と違い、切れない。
やはり、刃幅を変えたら研ぎ直すのが当たり前かと思う。
自分で砥石で研いだら、切れ味が戻ったが、無駄な買い物をした気分。

正直、職人とは呼べない。
昔は評判が良かったのかもしれないが、二度とここで買う事は無い。

I bought a Chef's Knife with the harder blue steel. Using it, the feel is excellent - the knife truly belongs to my hand. It stays sharp with only honing to maintain. I'd go back and purchase another one if I find myself in Tokyo.

A busy shop and that’s because they are known for good quality knives, but even better quality service - friendly and accommodating!

Good little place to check on for knives.
Got my Tsujihiki here and now can’t wait to slice some meat and fish with it!
Good and friendly customer service as well.
The only downsize is their knives ranges quite limited and the brand itself is hard to research and not very well known.

プレゼント用として出刃を購入させて頂きました。
包丁に関して全くの無知でしたので、手入れ方法や研ぎを依頼するタイミングなどたくさん質問してしまいましたが、どれも丁寧に答えてくださいました。
相手にプレゼントした所、とても切れ味がいいと満足そうでした！かね惣さんにお願いして良かったです。
次は柳刃を購入しに行きたいと思います。またよろしくお願いします

Many nice knives, chef knife start from 10000 yen. Must try, a genuine Japanese knife will show you how dull your sharp knife is.

Great service little bit of a language barrier but they always find a workaround excellent quality knives to I mean good I bought couple of their pocket knives and one other big hunting daggers and both are so unbelievably sharp play bacon give you a clean shave I bought a couple of their pocket knives and one other big hunting daggers and both are so unbelievably sharp they bacon give you a clean shave if you just sharpen them a little more than what they already are Also the big divers are very good with balance wise they don’t feel too top-heavy but they have enough balance so if you drop it with a little extra forest it’s going to reflect some damage

Beautiful knives and cutlery. I bought one to take home and they sharpened the blade for around 20 min.

We purchased five kitchen knives, two small scissors and a few other items in 2015 - the best craftmenship you will find, wonderful experience and knives.

A family that I stayed with in Tokyo recommended this shop after I explained that I was looking for a serious Deba (Japanese fish filleting knife) and was surprised to find out that this shop in a touristy area has been making and selling good quality knives for generations.

After purchasing my knife they performed a sharpening service and I picked it up 30 minutes later. I now own two knives from this shop and they are both very good quality, hard working knives for the price.

「うちで買った包丁ならいつでも研ぎに持ってきて下さい」なんて売る時だけイイこと言って、実際研ぎに持って行っても面倒＆迷惑そうな態度をされ悲しくなりました。愛想もないし、遠方から伺っているのにその対応をされたのでは気分が悪いのでもう二度と行きません。
