Our Features
Our Features
Premium Steel
Made with a durable 7CR17 steel, which has significantly more carbon content than other “premium” knives. We also use a more acute 15 degree angles for a noticeably sharper cutting face.
Unique Sloped Bolster
Our unique sloped bolster pulls double duty: the sloped shape encourages a proper “pinch grip” for comfort and control, while the bolster’s placement creates better access to the full length of the blade.
Pakkawood Handle
The Pakkawood handle seamlessly blends comfort with softness, offering an optimal grip. Their ergonomic design strikes a perfect balance between the handle and the slim blade, ensuring effortless maneuverability.

Why we made this
We wanted to design something special that brings us so much joy in our day-to-day lives. The focus was on how we could add a bit more personality to our everyday kitchen.

Hi Kelly, we’re sorry to hear that! Please email us at support@yatoshiknives.com with your order number and a few photos of the issue. We’d be happy to look into this and help make it right.
The set is great looking and the knives are amazing. Got them for my wife for her birthday and she loves them. The price was affordable and the look is amazing.
The shipping was fast and I received what was shown in the pictures. The knives are very nice looking. I like the steak knives because they are not serrated.
I expected the knives to be sharper than they were when I received them but I bought a sharpener too. Overall I am happy.
These are the best knives we have ever had. They are so sharp we have already accidentally cut our finger. The steak knives are as sharp as the other knives in the set. We love them.
If I could give them higher than 5 stars I would in a heartbeat. I ordered my knives on a Sunday and got them but Friday in the same week. I enjoy using them and they are beyond beautiful and the perfect set of knives. I had some trouble but the customer service team was so helpful that I would recommend people to get knives or other items from them. So so thankful to this company. Thank you very much.
Very sharp knives! My wife, who describes herself as “kitchen-ally challenged” is a little nervous about using them because they are extremely sharp. But is now becoming more comfortable with them. The knives we’ve used, cut through meat easily. If you’re used to a little more duller knives, be careful. Your ways of sawing and pushing are over. These knives slice easily. Handles were very comfortable and look very nice. We wash and dry immediately. So far they’ve been a very good purchase. Absolutely no negative issues.
This knife block comes with everything you'll need to cut ingredients for delicious meals. The first thing I noticed was that everything was extremely well packaged. The knives were divided neatly into two different boxes, and were padded exceptionally well. The second thing I noticed is that the block itself is HEAVY. It's definitely solid wood, and looks amazing on our counter. The third thing I noticed was that the knives are all very sharp and easy to wash! Hand wash only is recommended, as they can rust if left to air dry. This block is definitely worth it!
The knives are easy to hold, not too heavy or light. The steak knives cut through the steak as if it were butter, it was amazingly easy. Each of the knives are the same way with how easy they cut, slice, chop, or dice. The knives and block came packaged well to protect during shipping. Great addition to the kitchen.
Wow! Love this culinary knife set. The dark earthy wood tone of the knife block really ties this set together. The blades are sharp and machined very well. The handles feel high end and the craftsmanship is excellent. These feel like real chef knives! (To the amateur at home kitchen chef that is me.) I've already gotten compliments on my new knives from family members who were equally impressed by the quality. The variety of knives available here has every sharp tool you may need in your home kitchen. My personal favorite is the chef's knife followed closely by the steak knives. I love that they are not serrated, which gives them a more elegant, higher quality feel and look relying on the sharpness of the blade rather than any sawing action. Really very impressed overall, highly recommended!
The base is very heavy and it�s real wood. Very sharp, be careful. I cut two fingers. But I like the design. Lightweight and easy to use. Looks very neat on the countertop.
This set has everything I need for my kitchen. The block is sturdy. The knives are sharp. I�ve used the scissors on a rotisserie chicken to break the ribcage and even on bacon with ease. All the knives and scissors are easy to clean and don�t scuff up with my dish sponge. With proper care I can see these lasting a long time. (Pro tip: if you love your knives, DONT soak your knives) the presentation on the box and upon unwrapping would also make these a great housewarming or wedding gift. Highly recommend.
