How we came to produce some of the world's finest Japanese knives, cutting boards other accessories.
Innovating while respecting tradition
Both Japanese forging techniques and Canadian woodworking expertise have been perfected for hundreds of years.
We wanted to offer the perfect combination between both to provide some of the finest handmade Japanese knives, cutting boards and other chef tools in the world.

Cooking with high quality Japanese knives and handmade cutting boards completely enhances your experience and makes it so enjoyable. We want to make this experience accessible to everyone; for the professional chef as much as for the home cook.

I bought this for my son and daughter-in law and they love it. Not just like. They love. I love it too, it looks gorgeous and it holds the knives very well.
I wrote you, Samuel, as soon as I had purchased the knife. I told you the address that was auto - populated was incorrect. You did nothing to assist me. I am giving one star for very poor service.
I love my Hazaki knife and I love that it is Canadian made. It feels great in my hand, performs well and is lovely to look at. This is my first Hazaki knife, but won't be my last!
Bonne lame bien équilibrée, assez lourde mais pas trop, manche agréable pour toute la famille,
Super rapport qualité prix!
Merci!
Ps : envoi en france rapide, sans frais d'import pour ma part (<150€)
I absolutely love the knife block. The finish is beautiful and the workmanship meticulous. It looks stunning on my counter and would not hesitate to recommend to everyone.
We first experienced Hazaki table knives at a chef-led dinner at Down Home and loved them enough to purchase the mixed wood set for our own Forest Feast dinners. They add so much to each place setting, with the varied wood handles bringing warmth and character to the table. They feel substantial in the hand, cut beautifully, and are one of those small details that genuinely elevate the experience for our guests.
This is my second Hizaki knife. It is really beautiful and I have no doubt it will be perfect for preparing all my vegetables. I am excited to use it soon. Excellent customer service, packaging and shipping.
"Hazaki is the result of my passion for cooking, design and craftsmanship.
We spend a lot of time and effort in designing products that are not only beautiful but that will also last a lifetime.
Hazaki is the sweet spot where chefs and home cooks can both enjoy the quality and utility of our products without having to spend a fortune."
- Samuel Bouchard, Founder of Hazaki
The importance of Chefs' advice
Working closely with chefs was extremely important in all our design process. If a knife or cutting board can last in a professional kitchen, it will surely do so at home.
Hazaki has now earned its place in some of the finest professional kitchens in the world.
