I'd like to buy a Japanese knife/knives when I'm in Tokyo. My budget is around £400 (60,000 yen) for a set of 3, or I'd pay £250 (40000 yen) for a really nice individual one.how much sushi fish per person Does anyone have any recommendations of which brand, or where to buy one?best sushi roll knife Shun knives are by far the best/sharpest knives I've ever used so far and I've used well over 100 high quality Japanese knives. sushi west island sourcesTheir bread knife in particular is a must have. sushi delivery sofiaIt's totally and amazingly sharp!sushi delivery dubai media city

Forgot to say that I bought mine at a Williams Sonoma in California, but I've seen them in department stores in Japan. I know that Isetan in Shinjuku has them for sure. free sushi lessons onlineYou can probably buy them on Amazon in your country too.japanese sushi knife price In addition, you can buy one of a kind knives in Kappabashi in Tokyo or at Sakai Ichimonji shop in Osaka Doguyasuji: I have a few of "one of a kind" knives but I still think Shun is better. 2 destinations mentioned in this post Great advice thank you. Thanks for taking the time to post a reply That is a nice budget. If you want something unique then shop the usual places where knife shops tend to be (i.e. Asakusa, Tsukiji outer market, Kappabashi, etc.) and look for a knife shop that appears to have been around for awhile.

Know the style you want. Let the shop-master show you what he has in your budget range. You will most likely not get ripped off. You are paying for what you get. Be aware that the best high-carbon steel does rust and corrode quickly and needs to be wiped clean and sharpened regularly. Like S-san, we have a large collection of knives collected through the years. They all require a great amount of care and feeding. We lost our sharpener (he used to come to the local Mitsuwa Marketplace but no more) so we're kind of in a quandary of what to do now. But, once you start using a real nice Japanese knife with a good edge you will be surprised how dull your existing "sharp" knives actually are. Razor-sharp is not an exaggeration. Hi, thanks for your reply. We're staying in Asakusa so that'll be useful for browsing the shops. Thanks for the advice regarding the carbon steel- I have little experience with knives, I've used some expensive ones before, but never had to care for them. Kiya 木屋 is a very famous shop for knives in Tokyo.

The head shop is Nihonbashi, Chuo-ku Tokyo; it's in front/across the road of Mitsukoshi Department Store. I have a set of Shun Knives as well...bought them in Canada when some store had a 50% off sale on anything (normally they exclude high end knives from that offering...). You have to remember they are not designed for slicing through bones, frozen meat etc. Shun (at least in North America) offers free sharpening on their knives. You mail them to Oregon and they will sharpen them for free. One destination mentioned in this post As for the reasons said, I would not recommend carbon steel knives unless you buy with them a sharpening stone and know how to sharpen yourself unless a vendor is available. They discolor easily, too. Like a sword, cutting edge angle is important to kepp it razor sharp longer. I still sharpen mine & my sashimi knife is dangerously too sharp. Stick with stainless steel knives. You might consider a white ceramic knife for straight cutting.

It remain sharps & will not rust but will break/chip easily, if twisted or cutting bones. amazinga, I'm not sure why someone would bother buying a stainless knife in Japan. I guess you can get a laminated one with high carbon in the middle but those do not get a razor edge like a pure carbon one. There are plenty of stainless knives out there that are serviceable. You really can't cut sashimi properly with a stainless blade edge. You can with a laminated one but those are extremely expensive if you want to get a professional quality one. The rust wipes clean with a non-metallic scouring sponge. The best way to store long term is in a sheath after thoroughly drying. A great knife shop is the one in the Nishiki market place if you're in Kyoto. No knife leaves the shop without being sharpened and cleaned. It's the only one in the market place. Above all, don't put them in the dishwasher. New Otani vs Imperial hotel Hotel booking sites for Tokyo Kimono Rental and 1 hr photo service in Japan
