                • What is the option to pay in installments?

                When checking out with Shop Pay, you now have the option to pay now or later. Paying in installments on Shop Pay allows you to split your purchase amount into sour equal, biweekly installment payments—with 0% interest, no hidden or late fees, and no impact on your credit score. In some instances, your first payment is due when you make your purchase; otherwise, your first payment is due two weeks after your purchase

                • What if I make a return on a purchase made through Installments?

                If your refund amount is less than the amount remaining on your Shop Pay Installments balance, you can expect one or both of the following:

                - A smaller payment balance on the final payment.

                - Less future payments on the remaining loan balance.

                 

                If your refund amount is more than the amount remaining on your Shop Pay Installments balance, then you can expect to receive the difference as a refund to your original debit card or credit card payment method within 3 to 10 business days.

                • Which payment methods are accepted if I use the option to pay Installments on Shop Pay?

                The installments option on Shop Pay is available on debit and credit cards.

                      Japanese Knives

                        • I'm a beginner. Which knife is best for me?

                          We recommend starting with one of our all-purpose knives (Gyuto, Bunka, or Santoku). If you sign up for our Japanese Knife Club (it's free!), we'll provide you with our Ultimate Guide to Choosing and Enjoying Japanese Knives e-book to help you decide - plus, it comes with a 10% off coupon for your first order!

                        • Is it true that Japanese knives are brittle?

                          Japanese knives are made with super-hard Japanese steel, which is how they maintain a long-lasting edge and extreme sharpness. However, they are so rigid that they can chip when misused or accidents occur. Generally, as long as you only use your knife to cut appropriate things (vegetables, meat, etc.) and not hard objects (frozen food, bones, or non-organic materials), this isn't an issue. Read more about this topic here.

                        • How do I know if my knife requires oiling?

                          Any of our carbon steel knives will require regular oiling after each use. That means any knife made with Kasumi Superlative Carbon Steel, HM Carbon Steel, or Honyaki. Read more about our steels here. Oiling is unnecessary for stainless steel knives, but they should still be cleaned and dried after each use.

                        • What kind of oil can I use on my knife?

                          Generally, any food-safe oil will be okay to use. That includes oils such as canola or sunflower oil - just make sure it's a neutral-tasting oil; otherwise, it will flavor whatever you are cutting. You may also find knife-specific mineral oils that also work well.Back to top

                        • Why is my carbon steel knife changing color even though I've been oiling it?

                          Even if you religiously oil your knife after every use, it will gradually discolor on the surface. This transformation is nothing serious to worry about. It's what's called a patina. It's a natural oxidation that will happen over time as you use it, and actually, it's good for your knife. The patina will help to protect your carbon steel from rusting.

                        • Why does my Japanese-handle knife feel so different to hold?

                          Knives that use Japanese-style handles are made with a half-sized tang (the lower spike-shaped part of a blade hidden within the handle). That means Japanese-handle knives are heavier on the blade end. It is a sensation that you will quickly get used to, especially if you use a pinch-grip. We have some tips on holding knives in our knife size guide.

                        • Are Japanese knives only suitable for professional chefs?

                          Anyone can benefit from one of our high-quality knives. However, some of our knives are used for specialist tasks (such as the Yanagiba, for making sushi) and hence are more valued by professionals (or at-home sushi enthusiasts!).

                        • How often should I sharpen my knife?

                          It depends on how often you use it. If you cook every day, once a month should do the trick. Otherwise, sharpen it whenever it feels like it's losing its edge.

                        • Are there knives for left-handers?

                          Yes! We can provide a left-handed knife at no extra cost. Select the option below 'add-on' before you put the knife into your cart.

                        • I want my name engraved into my knife in Japanese, but what's the difference between Katakana, Hiragana, and Kanji?

                          Japanese has three 'alphabets.' Katakana is used for writing foreign words, and Hiragana is used to write Japanese words. Finally, Kanji is a writing system based on traditional Chinese characters. Because written Japanese uses no spaces, the three writing systems are combined to break up sentences and make them easy to read. For a visual comparison, here's my name (Kei) written with each of them: けい (Hiragana), ケイ(Katakana),  (Kanji). Choose whichever writing system looks most pleasing to you.

                        • Do I need whetstones if I already own a honing rod?

                          A honing rod should never be used on a Japanese knife. They tend to chip Japanese knives and are only intended for softer European steel. They don't sharpen knives but only straighten the 'burr' (the very peak of the cutting edge). A whetstone is the best way to sharpen both Japanese and European knives.Back to top

                                  The Key Benefit of Japanese Convex Blades

                                  The "蛤刃" (hamaguriba) or convex blade, is a hallmark of high-quality Japanese scissors, offering unparalleled precision in hairdressing. Its clamshell-inspired design, thicker in the middle and tapering to an ultra-sharp edge, ensures effortless slicing through hair for clean, precise cuts.

                                  This unique shape distributes cutting pressure evenly, enhancing the blade's longevity and reducing wear. The smooth, slicing action facilitated by the convex blade simplifies advanced cutting techniques, enhancing control and versatility in styling. Convex blades epitomize professional-grade scissors.

                                  Patented Design - Key Design Features

                                  Beloved by stylists for their optimal balance and vivid sharpness, these scissors effortlessly cut through various hair types. With a soft opening and closing action and meticulously balanced cutting surfaces, they are unmatched by mass production.

                                  Classic Handle

                                  This product has a Classic Handle.   Below are the differences between Offset and Classic Handles.

                                  If you want the classic handle, please see Vivid Offset Classic here.

                                  Classic vs Offset Handle

                                  Classic Handle
                                  Some stylists find that the symmetrical design of even scissors offers better visual and physical alignment with the cutting line, which can be advantageous for certain cutting styles. It’s also favored as the familiar choice.

                                  Offset Handle
                                  3D Offset design, based on ergonomic principles, ensures mobility for cuts that require complex hand movements. The curved design minimizes contact with fingers, reducing fatigue during prolonged use.
