It's actually fairly simple:
In most knife making business, there are a lot of middle men, from retailing to part manufacturing, each of them take a cut of the total sale price. By cutting out these middle-men, we can achieve the same quality and profitability, for half-the price.
They say a picture says a thousand words, we think a video says even more. Dive into the unboxing of the best selling Yakushi Full Knife Set and experience the extreme sharpness and robustness of our kitchen knife set.
I've never heard of Yakushi Knives before, why should I trust you?
You might not have heard of us but we’re definitely not new in the knife making business. Our team was formed in order to find a solution to the high prices that the Japanese knife making industry has set as a standard. We wanted to find a way to create high quality products while keeping the prices affordable for the general cooks out there. We believe we have achieved that having served over 9000 customers so far and more to come.
There are $50 knife sets out there on the market now, why should I pay more for this?
We even stumbled in $30 knife sets, it's crazy how low these can go for now. However we believe in spending more for higher quality products and materials, knives that will stand the test of intense cooking sessions while maintaining their edge. If you’re looking for a cheap and low quality product that will break or dull after a couple of use this set is not for you.
I don't need a set, I just need one knife.
If you're already equipped with most knife types in our sets, and most importantly if you're satisfied with them, then a set might not be for you.
Luckily, we also produce individual knives that you can look at in our Single Knives collection.
Which set is right for me?
This all depends on your personal cooking needs. If you're already equipped with a bread and boning knife for example, then maybe the Full Knife Set might not be for you. You might want to go with the Chef Knife Set or Master Knife Set.
However if you're looking to upgrade your cooking sessions, we believe the Full Knife Set will be the perfect addition to your kitchen. Knives in this set are more adapted to specific uses, therefore resulting in faster and higher quality cuts. The Full Set is also the best value when considering the price per knife.
