Yoshihiro Cutlery offers a unique Engraving Service for personalizing knives or creating memorable gifts. Our Text Engraving Service supports Japanese, Chinese, and English characters, crafted with precision using advanced laser technology.

We can also engrave knives not purchased from us. Please note that the text engraving fee for outside knives starts at $19.99.

Fast Turnaround: Our typical text engraving process takes approximately 5–15 minutes per knife. There’s no need to worry—engraving won’t delay your order.

1. Enter Your Text: Use the engraving input box on the product page to type your desired text. We support Japanese, Chinese, and English characters (emojis are not supported).
2. Review Your Entry: Double-check for accuracy, as the text will be engraved exactly as entered.
3. Add to Cart: Once your engraving is set, add the knife to your cart—the engraving is automatically included.
4. Proceed to Checkout: Complete your purchase as usual.

We also offer Tiger, Dragon, and Koi engravings, which can be added to your order separately.

Custom Designs: Interested in engraving a custom design or logo? Here's how it works:

• Starting Fee: Custom engraving begins at $49.
• File Requirements: Please email an Adobe Illustrator (.ai) file of your design to info@echefknife.com.
• No Illustrator File? We can work from a black-and-white image or drawing, but this requires additional time and may incur extra charges.
• Complex Designs: Highly detailed or intricate artwork will take longer to process and may be subject to higher fees.
• Manual Tracing: If your design needs to be manually traced or cleaned up, it may delay your order and increase the cost.

We ask that all custom artwork be high-contrast, clearly defined, and easy to interpret. This ensures the cleanest engraving and helps avoid delays.

Engraved knives are final sale and not eligible for refunds or returns.
