Best Japanese-style UK chef’s knife… but the nakiri is even better.

“Wow” will be your first thought when you see and feel these knives.

Beautiful kitchen tools that bring a little bit of Japanese mysticism and elegance into the home kitchen.

Japana knives are for those who want the best there is…We fell in love with them and it’s our current knife set for our daily use.

Japana knives are World Class
Japana knives are the best I have ever had. Not only are they excellent for chopping but they’re also absolutely gorgeous. I bought 2 sets for my daughter and loved them so much I ordered them for myself. I highly recommend Japana to anyone who enjoys cooking and baking as much as I do. Thanks Japana!!! I will be back!!!

Fantastic set of knives every cook should treat themselves too
I was looking for a new knife set, my old set was almost 20 years old and struggling to retain a sharp edge so after spending a good bit of time researching knifes and in the end I opted to go Japanese and purchased the 3 Sakai Kyuba x Japana set. They are not cheap!
The knifes are beautiful to look at, light to handle and gosh they are sharp. They make preparing food a pleasure the ease they slice through vegetables and meat is incredible. After using these I’ll never be able to use a cheap knife again to cook.
There is a saying in life you get what you pay for and buy cheap buy twice. They are expensive but if you enjoy cooking they are absolutely worth it.

An excellent company to deal with.
Having now purchased twice from them I would recommend them to anyone looking for high quantity Japanese items .
My first purchase was a Nakiri knife which is fantastic. The second purchase was a very nice magnetic knife block, which was damaged in transit but has been replaced quickly and painlessly.

Bought this as a 30th Birthday Gift and after receiving amazing customer service in getting the gift to me in time, the gift itself arrived which was even more impressive than the service!
Truly beautiful (and functional) piece and would recommend to anyone!

I bought a nice wooden knife board from Japana Home, one that stands up on the bench and you can attach knifes to without scratching them. It is a beautiful peace of art by itself and looks gorgeous in our kitchen. All my beautiful knives are now no longer hidden away and have finally found a good home. Thank you Japana Home.

“Low key obsessed with its one-of-a-kind blue dyed handle… not to mention the sharp Damascus steel”

The Woks of Life

“I absolutely LOVE this knife. Super sharp, versatile, & just so beautiful. The kind of knife that inspires great food.”

Dennis The Prescott

“My Sakai Kyuba, is extremely sharp and it’s kept its edge very nicely without needed to constantly sharpen it. These knives are pricey, but the quality and design is well worth the cost if you are looking to invest in a very special piece of kitchen equipment.”

Pro Home Cooks

“Japana Sakai Kyuba Knife Set: Overall best kitchen knife. To say that these knives are minor works of art is an understatement. Their design, combined with their outstanding performance and traditional craftsmanship, gave them an edge over all the others on our list.”

Luxe Digital

“Besides how incredibly stunning my Japana Knife looks in my kitchen, I must say that one of my favorite features is how lightweight it is. It can slice a hard squash like butter without being heavy and hard to handle like other professional knives”

The Cookware Geek

“When you buy a Japana knife, you are getting a beautiful piece of art with an extraordinary history.”
