Japanese knife set
What is better than one Japanese kitchen knife? A complete set of Japanese, high quality kitchen knives, of course! Japanese knives are famous for being sharper than their European counterparts. Japanese kitchen knives are made of extremely hard steel, so the blades can be sharpened to an impressively thin edge. This means you'll experience less cutting resistance, making it easier to slice through your ingredients. When you are a fan of a certain Japanese brand, it only makes sense to get a full, matching set with a chef's knife, meat carving knife and peeling knife. Discover our extensive range of authentic and traditional kitchen knives, made in Japan!

How do you choose the best Japanese knife set?
When it comes to choosing a Japanese knife set, it is important to start by determining your budget. A complete Japanese kitchen knife set can cost quite a lot of money. There are also more affordable series, but when it comes to Japanese kitchen knives, affordable still means investing in quality.
Furthermore, it is important to determine which knives you really need. Do all your favourite dishes include fish? You'll probably want a knife set that includes a yanagiba. Or choose a knife set that you can later expand with a separate yanagiba. Are you a meat lover? Then you would probably like a sujihiki or another Japanese carving knife. Almost every set includes Japanese chef's knives because of their versatility. Think of a santoku, gyuto or bunka: knives you use for many everyday cutting tasks.
One thing to keep in mind: in Japan, bread isn’t as much a part of everyday life as it is here in Europe. No problem, of course, but it also means that not every brand, or at least not every knife series, includes Japanese bread knives.
Japanese knife set brands
Popular brands for Japanese knife sets include Kai, Yaxell and especially Miyabi. Japanese knives by Miyabi stand out for their luxurious finish, razor-sharp blades and elegant Japanese look. Think of beautiful damascus steel, comfortable handles and a cutting feel that is both direct and refined. Ideal when you are looking for multiple knives that complement each other perfectly in quality, style and use.
Japanese knife set with block
You see a Japanese knife set with block less often than Western knife sets. This is because Japanese knives are more often sold separately or as a set without a traditional knife block. And actually, that suits these knives very well too. You will want to store a beautiful set of Japanese knives safely, but also show it off. For example, this can be done on a knife magnet or in a magnetic knife block. This keeps the blades well protected, lets you quickly grab the right knife, and showcases the Japanese design, the damascus steel and the distinctive handles much better than in a closed knife block.
