Why KnifeSOS? ⁠ You may (or may not) know that SharpEdge started off with just Luka (seen in photo 1) and has since evolved into a bona fide company with over 15 dedicated employees, all deeply passionate about Japanese knives.⁠ ⁠ The long(-er than) life expectancy of high-end Japanese kitchen knives quickly proved to have a "weak" spot → not being throw-away-after-one-use-material meant that •when• these blades inevitably became dull, chipped, or just plain tired, a solution had to be found.⁠ ⁠ Our mission extends beyond selling knives; we are committed to assisting our customers* in maintaining them. Recognizing that not everyone possesses the knowledge, tools, or time to sharpen/repair their knives, we are here to provide that service.⁠ ⁠ *We don't just sharpen knives bought from our shop or just Japanese knives. All knives are welcome to come for a blade check-up. 🚨⁠ ⁠ Safely, quickly, and with no fuss. Available in EU 27 countries and just a click away. 20% OFF for orders until the end of SEPT 20. Go to www.knifesos.com/en to learn more!⁠

“Hey, SharpEdge. I want a Japanese knife that is always razor sharp and looks great, but I don’t have the time to sharpen and maintain it regularly. Help?”⁠ ⁠ We hear you. There’s a few things you can do: 👇⁠ ➤ Use a wooden, plastic, or rubber cutting board⁠ ➤ Don’t leave your knife in the sink - wash it by hand, wipe it dry, and store it in a dry place, away from other utensils (sayas and knife racks work great) ⁠ ➤ Choose stainless steel that’s resistant to corrosion⁠ ➤ Choose harder steel that retains its edge for longer ⁠ ➤ Choose steel that develops a protective patina and call it ✨art✨ (needs extra care until fully developed, though, or the knife will rust!)⁠ ⁠ ➤ Send your knives to us and we’ll sharpen them for you. Easy peasy! Check out our KnifeSOS services - www.knifesos.com/en - 20% OFF until the end of SEPT 20 → valid for EU 27 countries only‼️⁠ ⁠ 📷 @vist_foto⁠ ⁠ #knifeporn #sharpeningknives #sharpknife #sharpeningday #staysharp #sharpedge #sharpknives #sharpeningsteel #kitchenknife #japaneseknives #sharpeningblades #knifecollection #sharpeningstation #kitchengadgets #sharpening #sharpeningservice #knifefanatics #sharpeningstones #sharpeningtools #sharpedgeshop #sharpeningskills #knifesharpening #knifefamily #sharpeningstone #sharpeningwork #fixingknives #knifesos

⚠️ They say a dull blade is more dangerous than a sharp one. Don’t live life on the (dull) edge.⁠ ⁠ Why do knives get dull, though?⁠ → Curling or rolling of the cutting-edge⁠ → Chipping (microchips contribute to overall dullness)⁠ → Corrosion (moisture and acid are your enemy!)⁠ → A lack of a good cutting technique.⁠ ⁠ We can help you.⁠ Check out our KnifeSOS sharpening services {linkinbio} - 20% OFF until SET 20, end of day.

The price of Japanese knives is the eternal 🐘 in the room, but here's our take on this polarizing subject:⁠ ⁠ It's essential to understand that by buying a high-end Japanese kitchen knife you're not just getting a knife; you're investing in a culinary masterpiece. These hand-forged knives are a cut above the rest, meticulously crafted by skilled artisans and honed to perfection. ⁠ ⁠ They represent a long-term investment that can outlast mass-produced alternatives and will (with proper care) outlive their owner. ⁠ ⁠ While cheaper options may be tempting, they can't match the quality, durability, and artistry that Japanese knives offer. In the end, you're not just buying a tool; you're acquiring a piece of culinary history and expertise that's been passed down through generations. ⁠ ⁠ ☝️ It's a worthwhile investment that simplifies your kitchen tasks and, ultimately, proves to be priceless.⁠ ⁠ Do you agree? Disagree? We'd like to hear from you in the comments.⁠ ⁠ [featured: Tanaka SG2 Damascus Gyuto Wa 210mm (8.3") - only a few pieces left in stock!]
