About Foodgear Shop – Experts in Japanese Knives

Foodgear Shop was founded in 2013 and has since developed into a specialty store located in Torvehallerne in Copenhagen . We are passionate about handmade Japanese knives and equipment for the professional and private kitchen.

The company was originally founded by fishmonger Tommy Raabo Fischer, but is now owned and operated by his wife, Therese Fischer. Foodgear Shop is the result of a love for quality ingredients and the right tools for cooking . Our team consists of six dedicated employees, all passionate about Japanese knives and ready to guide you in finding the right knife.

Exclusive Japanese Knives – Carefully Selected

Trading Japanese knives is not just a matter of importing and selling – it requires strong relationships with the most skilled forgers in Japan. The demand for the best handmade knives has increased globally, and our range has been created through close collaborations with the most renowned Japanese knife manufacturers.

Through several trips to Japan, we have built valuable connections, which gives us access to unique knives that are rarely found elsewhere. Our selection ranges from large Japanese manufacturers that compete with well-known European brands, to small family-run forges where quality and craftsmanship are second to none.

At Foodgear Shop, it's not just about selling knives - it's about finding the perfect knife for your needs . Whether you're a beginner or an enthusiast, we guide you in choosing the right knife based on steel type, balance and application .
