A knife is not just a knife

- and that's why you should have the knife in your hands and try it before you make your decision.

You can read a lot on the internet about different knives and the manufacturers behind them, but you can never really know how the individual knife feels exactly for you.

The cornerstone of the way we advise on knives is therefore that you can always get the knife in your hand and try cutting with it in our shop, and thus get a good sense of whether the knife has the right comfort, weight, thickness, cutting properties a et cetera.

This also means that you get a unique opportunity to compare knives from different manufacturers directly against each other.
