The most passionate knife-expert I've ever met, by a longshot. Knowledgeable about every variety of knife. EVERY one. Will talk your ear off, but only about the topics you want to learn.The store itself is specialized primarily in western knives. There are some eastern knives, but they aren't the focus.

Before I started at George Brown my father gifted me a visit to this wonderful store. I bought three French Sabatiers and an Italian bread knife, they were so inexpensive compared to others and the quality was amazing. That was almost ten years ago and they are still my favourite knives I’ve ever owned. I’ve only ever obtained one other Chinese vegetable knife from a casual fine dining restaurant, i still feel the same way I felt back then about these knives. I had a full heart. Wonderful quality. The joy and tastes I’ve spread to my wife, kids friends and even strangers are priceless and for that this store gets 5 stars; 5 for solidifying my passion every time I sharpen or use them.My godmother even gave me a gift card to this store because she knew how much I enjoyed these knives. I unfortunately lost the gift card in several moves that happened after which is sad, But I’ve vowed to revisit this store or so help me I will riot. Give this store your business, they deserve it IMO. Thank you Hacher&Krain

Very helpful in general, great at assessing what I needed, along with a history lesson. Money raised from sharpening services goes to charity, as well.

The owner at this shop is helpful, passionate, and knowledgeable. If you want to support a local business that really knows their trade, then this is the place to go. The knives will last a life time and ensure you never need new ones.

Decided to buy from here to support local shops, and the prices are within budget. I bought a K-1834 paring knife 4" online, and the checkout process was easy. There was a slight delay with the shipment, but Greg was kind enough to offer a discount for the delay. Unfortunately, when the knife arrived, I noticed a manufacturing defect (knife tip was bent). I emailed them and Greg personally delivered a replacement the next day. The knife feels great and is reasonably priced. And the service is excellent.

Stopped in on a whim, and glad I did. Greg (owner) has an incredible depth of knowledge about his products. Enjoyed learning about the steel and shape of the knives. Will be going back.

had an excellent experience! We learned much about knives and their history. Definitely recommended as the starting spot for getting into high end knives.

My husband bought me 2 knives from this shop a couple years ago, and they've been incredible. Just great knives to use for all my kitchen purposes. Recently, he dropped them off with the owner to be sharpened, as they've gotten dull over time. Not only did the owner sharpen and reshape them for free, he actually noticed that a decorative inlay in one of the handles was coming loose and REPLACED THE ENTIRE KNIFE FOR US, without us noticing the issue or asking for a replacement! The customer service in this shop is top notch & I definitely recommend buying your knives here!

"Quality is never an accident. It is always the result of intelligent effort."Best knife shop I have ever been to and I have been to most in Canada.
