What is the price based on?

These are TOKYO VIP SELECTION’s asking prices for the individual knives. Compare each maker, blade specification, handle and actual photographs when deciding what the piece is worth to you. The prices are not independent appraisals. Future resale prices are unverified; no appreciation or buyback is guaranteed.

Can I ask a question before buying?

Yes. Tell us which piece you are considering by email or Instagram. Instagram may require sign-in; email is available without an Instagram account. An enquiry creates no obligation and does not reserve a knife. You can also proceed directly to review an order.
