Sharpening blade edges

The pictures of the knife is my first knife that I bought 24 years ago.
It was nearly 200 dollars at that time.

I had worked many restaurants as a bath boy and a waiter,and kitchen helper, but I was not a chef or a line cook yet, so it was not suitable knife to me, but I really want it even though I did not know how to sharpen the blade edge.

I was Fisheries college student, and I had to move northan fisherman's village near by the college 400 miles away from my parent house in Tokyo.
I did not find even a place to live, but I bought the professional level of the chef knife, and aluminium pots, and flying pan.
I just put them in my car and drove to the village for 10 hours, and my life without living with parrent was started.

I was so fun surfing everyday, and cooking fresh fish everyday,and, fisherman's boat everyday, and of course, I went school everyday.

Remember! My study was about fish, fish, and fish every day, except for little bit of chemistry, and physics, math, English, and German classes, so sutdying about fish is so fun to me.
It was just like kid playing ground or kid going picnic.

After graduated college, Most of times, I had worked in restaurants,and I used the knife a lot.
I guess the knife was 270mm when it was new, but it is 225mm now.
I have sharpened the blade so many times, and I did not know how to sharpen the blade at the begining, so I had to try to sharpen the blade so many different ways until I get it.

The tip of the blade was broken a couple times in kitchen too.
It made me feel so sad when the blade tip was broken.

I had learned how to use knife a lot from the knife.
It was nearly $200 24 years ago, but it is very reasonable price, because it has taught me a lot.
If it was $50 knife, I guess I gave away someone else, or I do not know where it is right now, or even I do not remember I had it.


Some people have mentioned me about the knives which I have sold are not hard to sharpen or hard to get sharp edges.
I have heard of peopel have talked about it in knife forum or the others websites.

Of course, I do not sell cheap stainless steel knife with soft blade, and what I sell is hard blade for professional, so it takes at least one hour to get sharp edge.

It is a safty reason for the knife or avoiding accident that sends the knife without sharp blade edge, and etc,.
Some of the brands knives are already sharpened by the manufactures.


If someone do not know how to sharpen the blade edge,the person should not buy from me, because the person have to sharpen the blade after dull the blade anyway.

However, I am always welcome a person who do not know how to sharpen the blade as I did not know how to sharpen my first knife.

I do also service to sharpen the blade without any cost.
I also do service to sharpen the blade for knives which were purchased from us with no cost.

If you think that knives purchased from us are dull, please send them back to us.
I will sharpen the blade for you.
Thank you.
