|
*Korin knife services will not be available in March, May, October and the middle of November 2008 due to the availability of the knife master, Chiharu Sagai. We apologize for the inconvenience.
KORIN
offers a number of unique knife-related services. Our in-house sharpening
master, Chiharu Sugai, regularly travels to Japan to select knives
for the KORIN Collection. He also receives specialized training in
sharpening and repairing both traditional and Western-style Japanese
knives.
Sharpening
Are you having trouble sharpening your knives?
At KORIN, we can sharpen virtually any knife: Japanese or western
style (except serrated knives.) Do you need an extra-sharp edge for
a special event? Send your knife to Korin for a tune-up. We will sharpen
them by hand, using a variety of Japanese water stones. We can put
a precision edge on any knife! Prices vary from knife to knife. Traditional
knives such as yanagi, usuba,
and deba, require more labor
and will cost slightly more to sharpen.
*Please contact us to make a schedule.
Phone:212-587-7021 ext.224 or 232 / 1-800-626-2172

Blade Repair
If you crack or chip your blade, send it to us for repair. We use specialized
mechanical water wheels imported from Japan. All knives are hand finished
on water stones. Prices vary according to the type of knife and amount
of repair work necessary. |

Left-Handed knives
Are you left-handed? We can customize the blade edges on Western-style
gyutou, sujihiki
and petty knives for left-handed
customers. Please inquire and we'll be happy to try and meet your needs. |

Custom Engraving
Korin can engrave two initials on the metal collar (tsuba) of selected
Western-style knives or on the blade? neck (right above the tsuba)
of many
Japanese-style knives. This is the perfect way to personalize a
gift knife or protect your valuable tools! Please check the list
of knives, as this is only possible with certain models. |

Handle Replacement
Korin can replace old and worn handles on many traditional knives.
Please call Korin for details. |

Knife Sharpening Demonstration
Do you want to invite knife master Chiharu Sugai to your kitchen
or your school for a demonstration?
You can learn from Korin’s master knife sharpener how to sharpen
Japanese and German knives using water stones. Also, you can bring your
own knives and get a “hands on” lesson to further enhance
your skills and learn how to sharpen the tools of your trade. This will
be a fun, educational experience that will help improve your sharpening
skills, plus offer you a chance to buy high quality Japanese knives
at discounted prices. |
