Product Inspection
Upon receiving your product, please inspect it carefully to confirm the following:
1. The item is not defective
2. The item matches your original order
Returns for Personal Reasons
As our products are shipped directly from Japan and due to the sanitary nature of our items, we do not accept returns or exchanges based on personal preferences (e.g., you don’t like how it looks, or you have personalized your knife). Only returns or exchanges due to defects or order discrepancies will be accepted after delivery.
Cancellations
Please contact us before requesting a cancellation. For personal cancellations, the refund will be reduced by the full shipping costs (both sending and return) and a 15% restocking fee. Cancellations are processed within 1–2 weeks after the returned item is confirmed at our warehouse in Japan.
Exchanges for Damaged or Incorrect Items
We conduct a strict quality check before shipping every item. If your product arrives damaged, defective, or incorrect, please contact us within 7 days of delivery.
We will arrange a free exchange, or if the item is out of stock, offer a refund or alternative replacement.
For more information, please visit the Policy Page.
Tariffs and VAT are established by the customs authorities of the country or region where the goods are purchased, and are based on the country of manufacture and the goods. Classification determines the amount of duty fees.
The amount you pay at the time of purchase does not include local customs duties and VAT, which may or may not be levied at the discretion of the local customs office.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the relevant tax authorities in your country.
Pre-orders typically take between 30 to 365 days to produce, depending on the forging process and finish of the desired knife.
As a rule, pre-orders cannot be canceled after payment, as these items are of limited quantity and made specifically by commissioning a craftsman.
If you must cancel for personal reasons within the production period, a 30% cancellation fee will be applied. However, if the order is not fulfilled within the specified production timeframe, it may be canceled without any handling fee.
Wipe dry after use. Avoid acidic ingredients. Hand wash only with neutral detergent. Do not use dishwashers. For carbon steel, apply oil to prevent rust.
