The Basics
-
Where are you located? Kakushin's Knife Shop is located at 360 Maloney Ouest, Gatineau, Quebec, Canada.

Where are the products shipped from? Everything is hand-picked and inspected before being shipped from our shop. None of our products are transshipped, drop-shipped or fulfilled by any 3rd party which ensures quality control. This fulfillment model also avoids unfortunate surprises of hidden fee's such as duties/customs/taxes.
-
How are the products shipped? Our products are shipped in bubble shipping envelopes to keep the products protected. In some cases, we could recycle boxes to ship larger orders or products such as cutting boards.
-

When is my product shipped? Our orders are shipped within 24-48 business hours.
-
Do you provide tracking? Yes, all our orders include a tracking number and in many cases a signature on delivery is required, all depending on the value of the package.
-
What are the delivery delays? All depending on your shipping option at the point of check-out and destination, most purchases are delivered to your door within 1 to 10 business days.
-
Where are your products made? To provide one of the largest variety of models under one shop, we source products from various independent blacksmiths and manufacturers around the world. Currently supporting over 15 countries, fabrication location is specific to each product. If the fabrication country is not listed under the product title, shows blank or shows Kakushin Kitchen, that product either combined products from multiple countries or that same product can vary in fabrication country depending on fulfillment and product availability. Don't be shy to ask if one caught your attention, and you want to know more.
-
How do promotions work?
 All our promotions are set based on availability and can from one country to another. Promotional discounts are set for the product price before taxes and shipping fee's. Note that two individual discount codes cannot be combined.
