Just received my knife in record time! I ordered it on Oct 21st and received it on November 4th. The first and finish is absolutely stunning, as it should be for a knife at this price point. On performance, it cuts like a DREAM. I’m so happy with my purchase, the customer service staff were very responsive and super helpful. They catered to my needs and even sent me pictures of my knife once it was done. My experience with Fujiwara has been a solid 15/10. This is my first time buying from them but it’ll certainly won’t be my last. Highly HIGHLY recommended.

Incredible knife! I purchased the 180mm Gyuto Denka no Hoto and it's absolutely stunning. The steel is beautiful and sharper than any other knife I have ever used. It feels clearly sharper than my Shun knives ever have. I really like the spot for my index finger as well. Thank you so much for your hard work and extraordinary knife making skills! A true treasure I will enjoy using during my lifetime. Great customer service and easy shipping experience as well. Looking forward to maybe another Denka in my future :) Thanks again!

Simply the best knife I have ever used. I have worked kitchen for approximately 12 years professionally, and there is no equivalent to this knife. Received knife quickly via mail, hand-made; obtained with ebony-style handle and finger holster. Extremely well balanced, blade is better than razor sharp and cuts through meat and vegetables, etc., effortlessly. Beautiful knife overall, would buy again, and recommending to friends. From another professional source here locally in Edmonton, this knife is known as one of the best knives in the world, and this is obvious once used. Easily a five-out-of-five star knife.
Thank you very much Fujiwara-san!

Im VERY happy with my order and The result. I changed a few things along the way, one being going with Denka instead of Mab. Of course there were no problem and custom service were swift with the response and change of order.
210 mm denka were perfect and I use it everyday.
Thanks alot! 10/10.

This is a great knife with a traditional wabi-sabi aesthetic of subtle irregularity that reveals its making. Perfectly balanced and super sharp it is a pleasure to use every day. The Maboroshi is also a very practical knife of carbon steal blade wrapped in a stainless steal. I have a few Japanese knives but I love my Maboroshi and Nashiji best because of simple natural beauty and they way they feel in my hand when I cut.

I am admittedly enchanted by the rustic beauty of Fujiwara knives. I own a Denka Santoku and now a Maboroshi Gyuto. These knives are truly handmade, no two exactly the same. Your knife will be unique in its own way. What is in common with both of my knives is a wicked cutting edge.
After over 25 years of working in a professional kitchen, the daily routine of cutting meat and vegetables can become monotonous. Working with Fujiwara knives has changed the way I think about kitchen knives. I now take a new delight in my daily routine of cutting and chopping.
I can also say that I've had and excellent experience with their attentive customer service.

I had to wait some time before the knife arrived, probably because of the ebony handle I ordered. When it arrived it was packed as a gift. I'm very pleased with this knife. I use it for some time now. It is super sharp and has a beautiful artisan look and feel.

The bones of this knife is superb. No matter how much it is polished, still has bite.
The problem was that the knife required a lot of work on the stones. A lot of overgrind and the knife needed considerable thinning. Working through SS is laborious. Last, the neck or choilwas gauged. More of a fit and finish issue as this does not impact performance. Many of us knife nuts buy these knifes for its steel and accept that we will need to subject it to our stones, for better or worst. Currently, the knife is wedging more than I would like on tall dense products. The cutting edge is awesome.
