Love my knife, although I do have to fight for it as my partner also loves using it. Its comfortable to handle; sharp and does the job
I recently purchased three knives and I’m absolutely loving them there perfectly crafted and a pleasure to use
I got to use these knives and I find myself beautifully!!! They are very unique
These are the nicest knives I have and probably ever will own. They are high quality and so sharp, I would highly recommend if you're looking to spend a bit of money, you will get what you pay for and then some. I feel joy when I look at and use these knives.
The knives came in a beautiful enclosed box. They were sharp and ready to use. The ergonomics of the handles is what I enjoy most, it is comfortable to work with. The blades are incredible. Easy to clean with mild soap and water.
The knife took a lot longer to arrive than expected, however now I have it, the quality is excellent and I am very pleased with my purchase. I will be looking to buy a full set in the future.

Good to know
Which Makito should I start with?
The 3-piece set: the 8.5" chef, 7" santoku and 3.5" paring knife cover almost every job, for less than buying them separately. Want the full collection? The 9-piece set has every knife in the range.
Can it go in the dishwasher?
No. Hand wash and dry it straight after use to keep the edge sharp and the handle looking its best.
How long does delivery take?
Shipping is free worldwide on every order. Most orders arrive within 7–10 business days; remote areas can take a little longer.
What if it’s not right for me?
You have 180 days to return it, as long as it's complete, undamaged and in its original packaging.
Is there a warranty?
Yes. Every Makito knife is covered by our lifetime warranty.
