Add-Ons

Add on laser engraving or etching for knives and/or sayas. This is for simple names, words, or short phrases (approx. 10 words or less).  Sizing and placement will be determined by our team to ensure good balance and a nice aesthetic, as well as feasibility based on finish, available space, etc.  Engravings on kurouchi or tsuchime (hammer mark finished) knives may not be as crisp or easy to read.  Sayas with painted or lacquer finishes can not be engraved.

Please pick a font from the product images and provide the font number along with the text you wish to engrave in the "Note to Seller" section during checkout. You can also email us with your order number, font selection, and text for engraving.

If any clarification is needed, we may follow up via email or phone. This is a per laser charge, so, for example, if you wanted to engrave both the knife and saya, you would select 2 of these.

Yaki Sugi is a process of roasting the wood on knife handles to create a darker and more water-resistant finish (but not waterproof), often with better grip.  This service can be offered on ho wood, ichii, and cherry Japanese style handles and creates a look and finish similar to the burnt chestnut handles featured on some knives we carry.  We can not provide this service for western style handles, ebony handles, pakkawood handles, or burnt chestnut handles.

Rounding the spine and choil of knives can have a significant impact on the in-hand feel.  While many of the knives we carry do have some easing or rounding already, some do not.  However, even for the ones that already do, we can improve upon the comfort by further rounding and polishing those areas.

For this process, we use a belt grinder and buffer.  If the knife has a kurouchi finish, that finish will be removed in the polished areas.  The area closest to the handle (the closest 1-2mm may not be possible to reach, though we will do our best to do the most complete job possible.

If ordering multiple knives, please email us with which ones you want this service for. If there are any issues that would prevent us from offering this service for the knife or knives you've requested, we will reach out via email or phone.

There is an unspoken code of preservation of artwork amongst street artists. This respect is given to the artists simply by giving ample time for the casual passerby to enjoy its colorful existence on various surfaces. This ritual has persevered and dominated the streets since the 1970's. 

These sticker designs are a culmination of years of studying the graffiti culture of Los Angeles throughout the decades. While some see graffiti art as a nuisance, I see it as a celebration of culture through color and design. The vibrant colors and 3D images can be found throughout the city, often in hidden and understated spaces.
