Payment & Discounts
If your discount code isn't working, please check the following:
❖ Has the code expired?
❖ Are there extra spaces or typos when entering it?
❖ Is the code being used with excluded items (some codes do not apply to pre-orders or specific products)?
❖ Some codes cannot be combined with other discounts.
❖ If you're still having trouble, feel free to contact our support team.
Unfortunately, we cannot apply discount codes after an order is completed.
However, if your order hasn't shipped yet, we may be able to help. Alternatively, we may offer a new discount code for future use.
When your order is completed, a confirmation email is automatically sent to the email address you provided. This email includes your order number (starting with #) and a link to view your order status.
If you haven’t received the email, please check:
❖ Whether there was a typo in your email address
❖ If the email is in your spam or promotions folder
❖ Whether your payment went through (please check your card or PayPal statement)
If you're still unsure, feel free to reach out to our support team.
Your order confirmation email includes a "View Your Order" link. By clicking it, you can check your order details, shipping status, and payment confirmation.
We accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover, and PayPal. All transactions are securely encrypted via SSL.
The code may be invalid due to typos, formatting issues, or expiration. Please check:
❖ Extra spaces or incorrect characters
❖ Expired or inapplicable items
❖ Code conflicts with other discounts
If you're still having trouble, feel free to reach out to our support team.
Shipping
We ship worldwide via FedEx, DHL, or EMS.
❖ Within Japan: Free shipping on orders over ¥20,000
❖ International: Free shipping on orders over ¥30,000 (some remote areas excluded) Shipping cost is calculated automatically at checkout.
If your order hasn’t been processed for shipping yet, we can change the address. Please contact our support team as soon as possible with your order number.
Our prices do not include customs duties or VAT. These charges may apply depending on your country. Please check with your local customs office.
Delivery
Delivery takes about 2–14 days depending on the destination. You'll receive a tracking number once your order has shipped.
Please check your tracking number first. If it shows as delivered, check with neighbors or your delivery office. If you still can't locate it, contact our support team.
Returns and Refunds
We do not accept returns for personal reasons. If the item is defective or incorrect, please contact us within 7 days of receiving it. We will arrange an exchange or refund.
Order Changes & Cancellation
If your order hasn’t shipped yet, we can make changes. Please contact us as soon as possible.
Yes, cancellations are possible before shipping. However, a 15% cancellation fee will apply to cover payment processing, administrative handling, and restocking. Cancellations are not possible after shipment.
Pre-orders are generally non-refundable. If cancellation is necessary, a 20% fee applies. If we can’t deliver within the stated period, you’ll receive a full refund.
For items purchased in-store, we do not accept returns or exchanges due to customer preferences. If an exception is approved, a 30% restocking fee will be applied, regardless of whether tax exemption was used.
When shipping directly from a store location, please allow up to 3 weeks for preparation and dispatch. Delivery time may vary depending on stock location and operational conditions. Thank you for your understanding.
Important Notice Regarding Customs Duties
Import duties and taxes may be charged according to the destination country's regulations and are the customer’s responsibility. Orders cannot be returned or cancelled due to customs fees.
Returns or cancellations for personal reasons
Please note: We generally do not accept cancellations or returns due to customer preferences. Once an item has shipped, cancellation becomes highly impractical due to the following reasons:
• Return shipping must be arranged
• You will be responsible for the original shipping cost, a 15% cancellation fee, and any import duties or return customs fees
• Even if you refuse the package to avoid customs duties, you are still responsible for both the return shipping and applicable customs charges
Why a 15% cancellation fee?
We prepare each order with care—including global shipping, multilingual support, and real-time inventory allocation. Our systems and staff begin processing immediately after your order is placed. For this reason, a 15% cancellation fee applies even before shipping.
We Offer Product Changes Instead of Cancellations (When Possible)
Many customers ask to cancel their order simply because: “I changed my mind.” / “I like another design better.”
If your order has not yet been shipped, we are happy to assist you with product selection advice instead of cancelling.
• We’ll recommend similar models within your budget
• We'll explain the design and functionality differences clearly
• You can receive images of alternative options before deciding
If you’re unsure, just contact our support team. Our experts will help you find a knife that fits your needs beautifully.
