Seth,

Received Knife on Friday...And am at a loss for words. Calling this San Mai Stainless Damascus Chef's Knife a work of art doesn't quite capture it. This is an heirloom-quality piece! The pictures were beautiful, but when I opened the package & beheld it in person, I was truly blown away. The execution & craftsmanship are world-class; the Mammoth Scales & stainless Pins exquisite, but, what really slayed me were the integrated, dove-tailed Bolsters. They are the 'stars' of this production! Thanks, again, Seth. This is the Knife I've been searching for.

Holy multiple expletives!!! The knife is far beyond what I imagined.
Incredibly beautiful. The etching is fantastic. The sheath is
great. I don't think I've ever held a knife that fits my hand so
well. I went to the custom knife show in New York and handled a LOT
of knives, you're knife could stand up with any of them.
Thank you.
Thank you.

�I�ve had the pleasure of using one of Seth�s knives and what struck me the most is the precision craftsmanship and attention to fine detail that went into the piece. His knives are as much a piece of art, as they are a quintessential culinary tool. Each custom, handmade knife is completely unique making it a treasure to last a lifetime!�

As a chef and cooking instructor Seth has made me a custom Santoku style knife. It is without doubt the nicest knife I have ever used, and is the envy of my students. I was previously a big fan of other imported knives but it is wonderful to find this level of craftsmanship, quality and design a stones throw from where I live. I have reccomended Cosmo knives to all my students and have given one of Seth's knives to my apprentice, I am sure he will have it for the rest of his life. It is a delight to be able to reccomend a local business without reservation.

Hello
I was lucky enough to see your knives at the market on Salt Spring Island when i was there for my honeymoon just over a year and a half ago. I am a certified Red Seal Chef here in London Ontario and recognized your knives from across the market. Anyway I bought 2 knives both with a beatiful tooled top edge a chef knife and a smaller home knife. Since then in many restaurants and cooking jobs i have pulled the two knives out and always coworkers and customers have been impressed. They are truly the only knives i use now and have completely pushed aside my Spanish and German sets.

Just wanted to send you this in respect for a craftsman who does what he loves well and truly. I was just out with another friend who was buying a Christmas present for his mother and wanted to get her a knife. A high end store here presented him with a top quality Henkel and i lifted it a couldnt belive the lightness and lack of grip on the handle. I immediately told him to get something different. I know i am spoiled now and will never go back. I hope in the future i will be able to get more wonderful blades from ya.

P.S. The knives were the most expensive thing we bought on our honeymoon.

" Thank you very much for the custom order of one set of brass "horn knobs" (a.k.a. "ox balls") for our dairy cow. We were so please that you were able to pull of this traditional decoration used on the horns of family milk cows and oxen on such short notice for us from just a black and white newspaper clipping. Visitors to the Salt Spring Fall Fair appreciated the extra effort we put into the turn out of our cow. Although those knobs are traditionally threaded onto a warmed horn, the epoxy you included was very useful in permanently fixing those knobs on our cow's horns as our first try. We also greatly appreciated your help in restoring the traditional Swiss cow bell and strap to a once again useful item that can be worn by a cow, which completes our smart turn out of our traditional Swiss Braunvieh cattle for events and demonstrations. Please don't mind if we come back for more :) Thank you Seth! You are an artist with boundless creativity."
