Need a sharp object that can cut through just about anything?! They have it. The best part is is that they are Japanese like really Japanese not faux Japanese so you know the quality is superior. I went in to have them sharpen/fix gardening shears and was so happy to find kitchen knives, clay and ceramic sharpeners, gardening tools and other cool items like nail clippers. It’s a really cool store.
This place is such a gem of the Bay Area, a cool little store with all the high quality Japanese knives and tools you can imagine. I’ve since moved away but still order from Hida Tool online, it’s a great source of gifts for chefs and gardeners alike, and I love that I’m supporting a small I think family-owned? Bay Area business. If you’re in the area, stop in and say hello to the store cat!
Fantastic collection of Japanese knives and tools. For cooking, sharpening, bonsai, carvers, etc.
Really cool store! Great Japanese gardening tools, knifes, and handy funky stuff
I am on the east coast, but I purchase knives and tools from Hida online. I appreciate that they are curating a fine selection of japanese tools at affordable prices. And when I once received a damaged knife in the mail from them, they replaced it at no cost to me and in very rapid order. Top notch customer service!
What a luxury to have great shop for japanese woodworking and garden tools, plus a large selection of knives.
Great place with lots of quality tools and hard to find items. Nice selection if bonsai scissors, wire, clippers, cutters, in addition to lots of regular gardening shears. Dozens of different kinds if pull saws and every type of sharpening stone.
Best place I have found in the bay area to buy a Japanese knife. If you are a chef. If you want something just to show off maybe there are better places to shop, but this is where you can find quality practical knives and a good selection to choose from with knowledgeable advice. Very fair prices as well.
Great first impression. Dropped off my TOPS bushknife to be sharpened. Staff was very friendly and I think I was quoted fairly for the attention the knife needs. Store had lots of goodies inside.I will update this review once I receive my knife.
Go to place for high end Japanese gardening and woodworking tools. They have everything you need to keep your saws, pruners, loppers sharp and clean and lubed. Small shop but well organized. Very helpful staff.
