Knife

This Japanese specialty shop’s razor-sharp wares will make you forget all about factory blades. Most of the knives here have been tempered and forged by hammer-wielding blacksmiths into truly beautiful designs. Shibata Takayuki’s gorgeous Koutetsu collection, for example, is made with cladded powdered–steel and has an angular rosewood handle. 249 CRAWFORD ST 647 996 8609 MON-SAT 11-6 KNIFETORONTO.COM
