Knifewear has spent the last 15 years offering Canada the widest selection of Japanese kitchen knives, sharpening supplies, and cookware.

We go above and beyond not only the norms of customer service but also those of employment. Knifewear offers an above-average salary, consistent scheduling, health benefits, performance bonuses, profit-sharing, and product discount
