Nice knife, very sharp 👍
My second knife from Tokushu and I'm twice as satisfied.
The first one was a Yu Kurosaki Fujin petty knife. Killer. Great looks. Great blade. Great buying experience.
So, why twice as satisfied? Well, my second knife was a Masakage Koishi Gyuto. Unbelievably great knife. Same great price. Same great service.
Tokushu has great prices, great service, fast shipping, a great selection and the team is top shelf. You can't go wrong.
Definitely the best knife I've ever owned
I am so pleased with my NAKAGAWA X MORIHIRO Blue #1 Damascus 180mm Bunka purchase. As it did not have a handle, I chose to purchase a Tokushu custom horn handle. It not only looks amazing, but the added weight of the horn pairs wonderfully with the heavier, wide-bevel style bunka. I am thrilled with the fit and finish and would recommend Tokushu to others moving forward.
I absolutely love this knife and the nose job makes it even better!
Packed well and received fast. Beautiful knife
super sharp, super workmanship
People like to rag on Moritakas for not being the absolute “laseriest” knife out there but there is so much good with this knife.
First the food release is amazing, second it feels amazing to use and hold, third it gets extremely sharp and has not needed to be resharpened at all since I first touched it up. Can’t recommend moritaka enough to people who are looking to get into Japanese knives and want a reliable performer that holds its edge extremely well while not being overly unforgiving.
Knife is amazing, cuts like a laser beam. 5 stars is for the customer service, Tony is amazing and cares deeply for his customers.
This is my second Takamura Chromax Santoku 170mm knife.
Simple design.
Very light patina.
Thin blade. Holds the edge.
I got the first Takamura Chromax Santoku about 14 months ago from a Tokushu knife shop. The handle is black.
The Tokushu knife shop usually sends the knives out well prepared.
It has been used at home on a daily basis. Only stropped (often). The edge is still very sharp.
It is a small gem !!
So out of the box it had an ok edge wich lasted longer than most of my more expinsive knives, once i put an razor sharp edge on it it lasted longer than expected prossesing 80lbs of chicken, 40lbs of pork, and planty of vegitables before wanting to hono the edge again, and even still cut paper lake any of the shelf knife would, hands down one of my new fav knife brands!
This knife is a laser flys through food. Incredibly clean look. So sharp it makes every knife in your block seem dull. Simple and clean.
This knife is a work of art definitely a laser. Flys through food and that stamped pattern pushes foodlike potato away from the blade.
your Tokushu Knife is now a part of my wall art concept. it includes fifteen knives, breadboards, and antique wine corkscrews.
it looks really beautiful in the display.

Tokushu had this handle on special, I couldn't pass on the price. It's well crafted, maybe not the finest ebony specimen - some variations in color - but a big upgrade over the rough chestnut oval I had on my JCK Blue Moon sujihiki. I think the knife looks great now and I like the feel of the octagonal handle. I e-mailed Tokushu regarding the length of the handle and they gave recommendation for the 240mm suji that was right on.
I spent a little time with needle files to get the tang fitment I wanted, but I expected as much. Overall, very satisfied.
This strop looks nice, and does its job. I like how it fits in my stone holder, and I can use it at the final stage of my sharpening process. The 2 micron Strop Shots Tokushu sells are incredible. In about 3 passes on each side you have a new edge. Excellent!
Got this as a gift for a friend and they love it! They've demonstrated how will it works to me and it's as sharp and high quality as it is beautiful!
This is probably the most beautiful knife I own. It’s stunning. I like its performance especially in slicing. Highly recommend and knife from Nakagawa. Will be searching for more of his knives in the future.
I think this is a Goldilocks kind of knife. It's not too expensive and not too cheap. It's not too gaudy and not too banal. It's not too hard to sharpen and not made from too soft of steel. The only complaint I have is this is my first 135 mm petty and I don't think it's quite for me. Even though it's only slightly smaller than a 150 or 180 mm petty it feels a lot less versatile to me. I bought this as a citrus knife that can sit on the board or the bar, but it's too short to easily get through a medium size orange. This life is also a little bit too big for me to use as an in-hand knife other than for cleaning up meat. I prefer a 80 mm knife for in hand pairing type of work and I wish I got a 180 mm as my citrus/bar knife.
Shout out to the gentleman running the shop. They were so fast to take care of me and went above and beyond. I'll definitely keep coming back to support them.
This thing greatly benefited from Zach’s sharpening. It’s so sharp and Tokushu did such an incredible job both respecting this gorgeous knife and also protecting the Mirror Migaki finish.
The thing is so sharp. Wonderful job. I will forever add this to any future order.
Great knife very happy with the purchase 😁
I did not think something could look this good and be perfectly functional. Despite the classy polish, the handle feels nice and isn’t slippery. It looks great with my knife and is a pleasure to use.
