Knives in Toyama 2016/7/24 11:42
Hi. I understand that quite a few knife makers are based in Toyama. My favourite knife maker is Sukenari. I would love to be able to buy direct from them. They supposedly have a few retail stores in Toyama. Does anyone know their location/hours?

Sukenari's main store in Toyama is 6mins on foot from Toyama station. Hours are 10:30 to 17:30, closed on Saturdays and holidays

I checked the street view for the Toyama address and it just looks like a house. Do you know for sure if they sell to the public?

Also, been to the Nagoya outlet?

I'm in Kyoto now and willing to do a side trip, but I only speak english

I have never been, but yes, it's the house looking building with the blue sign.

The Nagoya store is the one with the green awning next to the red building.

Thanks all. I ended up going to the Nagoya store. They had so many knives! I bought my dream knife from them, a Sukenari ZDP-189 270mm gyuto. The price was a little more than I can get them online, but this may have more to do with the Aussie dollar than anything else.
