JKI is nothing short of the finest distributor of premier cutlery in North America--backed by a passionate, immensely knowledgeable owner whose devotion to his product and business are unlike any other, placing the customer's needs and satisfaction above all else. Do not hesitate to contact Jon, and certainly don't look elsewhere for your next knife!

I just got back from getting my knives sharpened and I must say this place is fantastic. Jon has created an awesome environment to educate customers while selling high end Japanese knives as well as sharpen knives like mine.

Jonathan the owner is a master knife sharpener, an expert on the myriad styles and functionality of Japanese knives and understands the nuances of customer service and meeting a welcoming friendly face at the door. No better place to purchase or get your knives sharpened. Selfishly, I'm ambivalent about writing a wonderful review as it will make getting my knives sharpened more difficult. I give JKI 6 stars.
