Had a really great experience with Carbon Knife Company. I brought in a few knives to get sharpened, plus one that finally gave out after a ton of use, it was my favorite knife, so I was pretty bummed. Craig helped me out and was super easygoing and genuine the whole time. He ended up replacing the knife, which I honestly didn't expect and really appreciated. I've bought a handful of knives from them over the years and have loved every one. Just a solid shop with great people and quality products. Definitely recommend checking them out. read more

Great service and selection. Reviews need to be at least 85 characters. XxOoxoxoxoxoxoxo

They have a large selection of not just knives, but other cookware as well. The staff seemed nice, but every question I asked was met with a bit of an attitude and the answer was condescending. They did an excellent job with my order though and helped me pick out a wooden sheath for my knife. Knife looks beautiful as well and the price was very reasonable. read more

Fabulous kitchen tools, bought all new Made In pans. I'm so happy with them. The service was excellent

Carbon Knife Co. gave me flashbacks to Nishiki Market in Kyoto....those amazing chefs knifes. For Christmas we bought a family member an amazing knife and magnetic knife holder....Simply gorgeous. Superb Service in a great shop stocked with all kinds of Kitchen goodies. Seriously if you go in here your jaw will drop....I know mine did! read more

Came in with no knife experience and the young lady that helped me was great. Lots of choices and diversity in product. Also seemed reasonably priced for the quality of the knife, would recommend if your into cooking. Also purchased as gift and they wrapped it with cool Japanese newspaper, good gift place read more

Love all my visits here, whether I have something in mind to buy or not, it's always so fun to peruse. On our last visit, we purchased a Santoku knife for my brother-in-law's wedding gift and one for our own collection. RJ was super helpful with our contemplations and guiding us in selecting a right knife for our preferences. They also have other kitchenware and cookbooks - we bought a couple of non-knife items like Viski cocktail glasses, off-set spatula, and chef tweezers. Everything was quite reasonably priced. We also brought in our existing knives so they could tell us which knives were due for sharpening. Thanks for a great experience, Carbon Knife Co! read more

Stopped by to check out the store. I must say it is really nice store. Bright, neat,, tidy, and the employees friendly. When I came in there was a class going on how to sharpen knives with a whetstone. Had time to peruse their stock of books, kitchen utensils, and the knives. The knives are extensive. If you are looking for a Japanese knife/knives there are many of different types and sizes. They also have nice set of other knives - fixed blades and folding knives. RJ was patient, knowledgeable, and very helpful in answering my questions. I didn't feel pressured to buy anything and my purchase was totally my own. I'll certainly come back. read more

My wife and I love this store. The selection of kitchen utensils is amazing. They have a big selection of stainless steel items as well. The service is unmatched. Every time I come in they treat me so well and have tons of patience, knowledge, and personal experience to help you find exactly what you're looking for. The value my wife and I have gotten from this store and its staff has been incredible. They have thought us and given us so many little tips and tricks to make life in the kitchen easier and safer. Such an amazing place, you won't regret stopping in. read more

Stopped in yesterday to purchase a yanagi style knife. Everyone was super welcoming and kind. Craig is very knowledgeable and helped me through the process of choosing a knife. Even went above and beyond with showing me how to sharpen and care for the knife. Will come back again. read more

This is the only place to buy knives in the Denver area. The owners and staff are so knowledgeable and helpful. The selection of cutlery is huge. They have amazing professional grade kitchen tools and gadgets. Their selection of cook books is wonderful. We always give a high quality knife for marriage gifts. These knives are keepsakes the can be used for decades. read more

My 20+ year old knives were in dire need of a sharpening and both had bent tips. I had passed Carbon many times on my way to Dio Mio and it looked like the perfect place to get them sharpened. It is $1 an inch to sharpen which is a great price. $20 later and my knives are better than new. Customer service was awesome and they were ready next day. read more

Glad I don't live in Denver, because my credit score would go way down from purchasing knives from Carbon. I did my research on getting a petty knife and settled on a Takamura R2 150mm, and inquired into a saya. Craig emailed promptly on what he had, and fitted the saya well before sending it out to me. They've also got an incredible selection of high quality blacksmiths. If you're into cooking, skip the trip to Williams Sonoma or the Shun knife block, come down to Carbon! You'll be sure to get a tailored experience for your needs. read more

Good service, vast selection and you get what you pay for. Treat yourself to a Japanese Knife.

I appreciated the team there taking the time to review the different types of steel, blade edges and handles and how they affect the end experience with the knife, such as feel in the hand, cut and maintenance procedures/frequency. Additionally they took the time to show me how to sharpen the blade, though I'll be practicing on an old blade first. read more

Stumbled upon the most adorable urban kitchen shop while brewery hopping in RiNo with my brother who is a classically trained Italian chef. While both of us enjoyed the offerings at Carbon Knife, it was my brother who absolutely loved the kitchen tools and knives. They were recognized for their true quality and the cultures from which they originate. This is a go-to for line cooks and home chefs, alike. I highly recommend this spot if you're in the market for a new knife or knife sharpening of your own set. The cookbooks they carry are just as fun to flip through as the stock their shelves with books from Japanese and Italian cultures! While this is a great shop to parooze while you're in the neighborhood, I recommend you give them a call if there's something specific you're looking for, as it is a smaller store. Happy shopping & cooking! read more

Incredible in every way. Every single thing for sale has been carefully chosen. The knives are works of craftsman art. The kitchen tools are all special. There is no miscellaneous junk in here to fill space. Even the cookbooks are all high end - the kind chefs would want to read for inspiration. It is a pleasure just to visit, but if you like to cook, you would do yourself a favor to get a proper knife from here. The staff / owners are people with excellent taste and a passion for what they do. It is my favorite shop of any kind. I wish all retail was like this. read more

My wife and I found this establishment because we needed our knives sharpened. It was a set we got fro our wedding. I did some dumb things and actually bent the tip of my favorite knife years ago. Well, not only did they put a sharp edge on all of our knives, but they tapered my bent knife and now it looks great! Can't say enough about these guys! I found the service outstanding and the price reasonable. They also see bar tools, as well! One caveat: There isn't a lot of parking nearby, so you might have to park on the other side of the block, but its worth the walk. read more

I came in here bacause everyone at work talked about how great the knives are AND how great the staff is. This place is dangerous. Not because of the sharp objects all over the walls, but because I want all of them! There is a wonderful selection of small kitchen equipment, cookbooks, and just other interesting things. Knife sharpening is quick and inexpensive. They also take really good care of people in the industry - so thank you for that! Your board of jobs by the door is brilliant, because you know we're always looking ;) read more

Incredible knife selection, service, and knowledge. Best place in Denver to buy your next kitchen knife

Without a moments doubt or hesitation, one of may absolute favorite places to shop and spend time. Exquisite knives and cooking tools curated by Craig and Tina... this is not Sur Le Table or Williams Sonoma. Those places become bland geared towards the mass consumer home cook. Carbon Knife is the opposite, and even has a posting board for restaurants looking for pro help. Knife sharpening is perfection and far beyond what you can accomplish at home with any device. Highest recommendation!!! This place is the real deal! read more

I was introduced to Carbon Knife Company from a very close friend of mine. As a home chef and surrounded by the culinary world with work I started to collect and and use Japanese knives. After being introduced to Craig and Tina "the owners" of this amazing shop I was hooked! They know their stuff about the different Japanese blacksmiths, the regions these working pieces of art come from, sharpening stones etc... Their prices are extremely reasonable and service is second to none. Highly recommend either visiting their Denver showroom or giving or purchasing off their wonderful website. Thank Craig and Tina! Darren read more

These guys go above and beyond. Next time I'm in Denver I'm gonna visit their store just because they ROCK!!!

There's a reason this place is rated 5 stars. They have any kind of knife you'll ever need that's worth a dang. They are also master knife sharpeners. Don't waste your money on Amazon, or Etsy, or William Sonoma... get yourself a knife that will last for ever at Carbon Knife Co. read more

I cringe every time I see a bunch of sharp blades, but needed a good culinary knife. When I walked in this place, it gives me the feelings of a clean workshop./ art gallery shop. Clean,quiet and well organized. They have a great selection of hand crafted Japanese culinary knives with cool designs on the blades and beautiful handles. The gentleman who helped me was knowledgeable and helped me to narrow down to what I need. He even offered to retrofit the knife guard to fit my knife. I also love their small kitchen items imported from Japan. Neat shop ! read more

Super helpful staff. Helped me pick out a new blade that was perfect for me and the work I do. When the unfortunate happens and my blade got chipped, they took good care of it and were able to restore the knife to her former glory. Highly recommend this place! Best knife shop in Denver, easy. read more

Tip: look at the floor and avoid all the fun cooking toys and cook books. (Birdbox challenge?) I am highly satisfied with their collection of cooking tools and knife sharpening services (chopping an onion now feels like chopping through a cloud after their knife sharpening work) Overall, freaking amazing things from them both on knife sharpening and cooking toys. I will definitely be back. read more

This is the only shop in the Denver area I trust to sharpen my handmade Japanese blades. They do a great job and also have a curated selection of cooking tools. read more

Craig and Tina are some of the best folks I've ever had the pleasure of interacting with as a service industry employee. I cannot say enough good things about their shop. They will always work with you to help find what you're looking for. They'll stop what they're doing to answer your questions or chat with you for a few minutes. They answer every question to the best of their ability. They carry service industry staples and are a wealth of knowledge and equipment. The prices are competitive. The service is outstanding. The inventory is inspiring and awesome. If you cook...professionally, or otherwise, do not sleep on this Denver gem. read more

Incredible knife selection, and very excellent prices for the quality! Awesome array of other kitchen tools, aprons- also love the cookbook collection. Knife sharpening is top notch and good turn around time. Very helpful staff as well read more

Where to begin? Tina & Craig have put together an amazing culinary shop that showcases cutlery made by some of the best blacksmiths in the world as well as many other quality items. It's paradise! The owners of Carbon Knife are Chefs and have outfitted the space in a very aesthetically appealing way. During my visits to this shop I've seen many industry folks either dropping off or picking up knives and that speaks to the quality and skill of Craig's sharpening services. I place a high value in the conversations I've had with Tina and her knowledge of the products Carbon Knife has. I walked out with a Japanese Yakitori Grill because of this. You aren't likely to find one of those for sale anywhere else in Denver. As for the knives, what a great spread! Own one hand forged artisan knife and you may become changed forever. A knife can be very personal and these good people can advise and help narrow the field. Carbon Knife has much going for it. Enjoy.. read more

Inspiring shop filled with relevant tools and friendly staff. For a culinary or beverage professional, this place fits the bill: All the good stuff and no crap. The sharpening services continue the love I have for my fine knives. What a find! read more

I finally had my midlevel knives sharpened and it has made such a difference. Craig at Carbon Knife did an excellent job sharpening 2 knives - one 3 inch paring knife and a 7 inch chefs knife, for $2 and $4, respectively. Well priced and well done! They also have a beautiful selection of high end knives as well as other small kitchen accessories. I grabbed a silicone scraper on my way out and it's so handy! read more

I called and spoke to the owner and felt he knew how to sharpen knives. I brought my knives in and was told he would have them ready in 2 days. I loved the shop with all the new knives and kitchen products. He texted me when the knives had been sharpened. I returned and bought and a mousses whipper which I had been looking for. I made another trip and bought a cutting board and a small knife and guards for my other knives. This store reminds of stores in my pasted. The people there know what their doing and are knowledge about what they are selling. They can also tell you how take of your purchase I 'd like to add this wasn't written by James L. I'm Sherry L. From Denver read more
