The Knife Merchant, LLC.

Not usually one to write reviews, but this level of excellence shouldn’t go unrecognized.

After tons of research and browsing I was beginning to feel a bit overwhelmed with where and how to buy my first handmade Japanese knives. That is until I found the videos Knife Merchant has on YouTube and from there I was walked through in detail how and why to choose which knives in just a few short minutes.

Needless to say I was able to confidently make my purchases and received my knifes absolutely RAZOR sharp and literally less than one whole day after ordering (paid extra for one day FedEx shipping of course).

I could go on and on all day; but let’s leave it at this. . .
Buy from Knife Merchant. They are the best, and you can’t beat the best👍

Top seller. Ordered five days fedex delivery to Cyprus. Great communication with the seller.

The Ollivanders of knives. Went here to get my first quality set of knives, Christopher was extremely nice and dedicated his time to help choose the perfect knives for my use. He even rounded the throat of my santoku to better accommodate for my grip. David educated me on the different styles of knives and crafting methods. Overall, all of the employees were customer oriented and made choosing a knife more of an experience than a purchase. Walked out with 2 knives that feel as if they were made for me, definitely will go back when I need to add to my new collection!

"The Knife Merchant" is excellent. Stable, detailed website. Great communication. Lowest price I could find for my beautiful knife. FAST shipping. Impressive, large inventory.
This is a family-owned business, father and daughter. This company is serious about providing superior, responsive customer service.
Thank you David and Meghan!

I ordered a couple things from their online store. I noticed that the charge had been refunded and never received a shipping confirmation. I called and asked about it, and the woman I talked to on the phone was so friendly and accommodating. For some reason my card had been flagged, but she fixed it right away and I got a confirmation the next day. Such an easy phone call to make, and I feel great about the whole experience. I'll be glad to buy my kitchen supplies from here again!

Great customer service the owner David was very helpful and knowledgeable of the products I had questions about when I called , being a chef he really can give a great perspective and advice,the website really gives good details about there products too , I placed my order and got it very quickly , if your looking to add equipment to your collection I highly recommend the knife merchant for one stop on line shopping

These guys are great, very friendly and pleasant to deal with. They'll take great care of your knives and know how to sharpen all varieties of steel properly. Solid variety in their showroom, good advice if you need it, all around excellent experience. I've been back many times.

Great help on the issue I was having! As well have previously ordered 3 knives from you guys and exeptional! I also placed a new order can you please verify it went through correctly if not to use a different card
Order ID: 134876

Great presentations of the knives and grinding techniques I've seen on YouTube. I have ordered 2 knives according to Order ID 135957 on January 2. Can you confirm the order? When can I expect the delivery to take place to my address in Sweden?

Fantastic. I ordered the Ultimate Edge knife bag in Olive, but decided to get it in graphite so I called back and the ladies we’re more than happy to help me out! The package came sooner than expected (website said 7-10 days, came in 5) and extremely well packaged. The bag I ordered came in perfect condition and the quality is out of this world! Well done, will definitely browse the site for any future purchases, thank you so much!!

Absolutely love purchasing knives from them. I personally bought knives for a gift a couple of years ago but my mom purchased some last week and had an issue with one of the knives. Now the issue wasn't with Knife Merchant but with FedEx, it looks like they dropped the package and messed up the tip on one of the knives. Not only did Knife Merchant ship out a new knife in 2 days they told her that if she knew anyone that could fix the tip on the other knife she could keep it. This business knows what customer service is and has me as a customer for life.

this place is absolutely fantastic, they have a very impressive selection of fine cutlery, the store is very clean and organize the, the staff is not just super friendly but extremely professional and knowledgeable, the first time I contact them was via email and Meghan responded right away and answerred all my questions, today I visited the store and Meghan was available to help me, she remembered what knife I mention on my email and also showed me other options available, it is very impressive all the detail and information she gave me about all the knives she showed me. I also had the privilege to meet David He was able to sharp my knives and He also polished them, they look like new and never been sharper. I was really lucky to find this place and I highly recommend it. I can't wait to go back

Great place I went there to get my first knife , Thank you so much I highly recommend that place to anyone who want get good knife for decent price..!!!

Very good quality cooking knives, wide variety. Excellent sharpening service while you wait, and the happiest, nicest employees. It is a joy to go there.

I always get a little nervous shopping online from lesser known retailers, but my experience with The Knife Merchant was perfect. Items were shipped and arrived promptly and within the estimated time and their prices were better than amazon for my sharpening supplies.

Came into the retail store in San Diego looking for a chef's knife, couldn't be happier with my visit. The girl at the front counter was helpful and knowledgable, and Chef David was even there to answer some specific hints and recommendations. Very competitive prices and had a large selection of brands not found anywhere else in the area. Will definitely be recommending Knife Merchant to friends, family, and co-workers!

Without question the best cutlery shop in San Diego; moreover, the USA. The owner and his supporting staff are amazing; knowledgeable, friendly and professional. They cary vast assortment of knifes from around the world...you want it they got it or can get it for you at a great prices. Their sharpening service is also outstanding. I look forward in visiting them again for all my cutlery needs.

Excellent knives shipped quickly with amazing packaging! best selection of kitchen tools I have seen, had a question and was emailed quickly with a response. Thank you KM
