About us

Welcome to KnivesCombined.com, a site created to assist knife shoppers in two ways:

  1. Avoiding Misleading Brands: The site puts a spotlight on authentic kitchen knives. We hope to help users steer clear of purchasing kitchen knives from deceptive brands. For instance, some claim to be “Japanese-style” or made of Japanese steel, but are actually rebranded OEM knives of poor quality that are not originated from Japan.

  2. Finding Authentic Kitchen Knives: KnivesCombined simplifies the process of discovering authentic kitchen knives from reputable sellers. Visitors can find in-stock listings based on their location, which helps save on taxes and shipping fees.

How KnivesCombined Works:

  • The site aggregates knife listings from various online stores and marketplaces. Listings are categorized on availability and attributes like maker, brand, knife type, steel, and more to help shoppers navigate.
  • We do not handle transactions. When visitors express interest in a specific knife, they click on the provided links, which direct them to individual stores for purchasing.

Cost and Monetization:

  • Everything mentioned above operates on a free of charge basis. Our aim is to build out KnivesCombined’s content with mutual benefits to store owners and visitors.
  • For monetization, we participate in affiliate programs offered by Amazon, eBay, and two knife retailers. These programs provide a means for us to build, run, and maintain the software that powers KnivesCombined. We do not manipulate listings or buying options in favor of affiliated parties.
