“It’s not often you find a perfect company, but Cutting Edge Knives deserves the title. They are friendly, knowledgable and helpful; incredibly quick to pack and ship orders, and carry an amazing stock of the finest Japanese knives and accessories that you’ll find anywhere. Everything they stock has a full description, technical details and high quality photography to help with purchasing decisions. I don’t *need* any more kitchen knives, but I’ll be buying more, and I wouldn’t shop anywhere else.”
“I spent a lot of time trawling the internet looking for a quality set of Japanese knives, even considering suppliers from USA and Japan. Eventually I came across cutting edge knives, who were the only UK suppliers who had in stock the type of knives in the steel I wanted by a quality manufacturer.
The ordering process was straightforward and communication from Ally and James was excellent.
My knives arrived 2 days after ordering, well packaged and conveniently delivered by DPD local, who gave an hour window which they stuck to.
I am very pleased with my knives and the accessories, such as blade guards and honing rod.
The craftsmanship and quality of materials is like no other knife I have owned and the sharpness out of the box amazing.
I wouldn't hesitate in using cutting edge knives again - hurray for specialist suppliers who know their stuff!”
“Great selection and service. Seems to be a company run by enthusiasts. I have two wonderful knives from them and they would be my first choice if I were to get another,”
“The knife arrived when they said it would and the delivery company gave me an hour delivery slot which was great.
The knife itself is very good and was delivered safely with no damage.”
“I had a nice experience with the company, meaning that they did exactly what they promote on their website, and I've received the exact amount of emails to be informed about everything, but not to many to be annoyed.
The knife itself, a Sakai Takayuki Moonlit Waves Gyuto, is absolutely brilliant. Very sharp (after two months I can still cut tomatoes in one move without squishing them), light and looks amazing.”
“This is my second purchase from Cutting Edge Knives. The quality of the knives they sell is absolutely outstanding, and their service is excellent: my orders have always been shipped swiftly and arrived promptly. I also like the wide range of types and blacksmiths they stock.”
“I’ve now bought 5 knives, the first was 5 years ago and service and the service is outstanding and hasn’t changed at all during that time. I’ll definitely keep building my knife collection with you guys.”
“Beautiful knife, well priced and delivered very quickly. Free postage is amazing, especially for a Japanese knife where postage is often £20-£30. Would absolutely recommend to others.”
“I found Cutting Edge Knives while endlessly searching online for a good retailer of quality Japanese knives. I came across Ally and James so I emailed for recommendations for a knife to add to the collection. James was incredibly helpful and I ended up following his suggestion with getting a knife. The service was very prompt and warm. The product pages were well laid out and concise. The whole experience made evaluating my options very easy and made me feel confident in shopping with them. I would certainly buy from Ally and James again. Very strongly recommended! Thanks guys!”
