Check out the following sites before buying a knife.
http://www.japanesechefsknife.com/products.html $7 shipping for each order
not per knife from Japanese high end knives. 3 day delivery to US customs
and 2 days from there to you.

This place if you are on the West cost is located near Seattle, WA
http://www.epicureanedge.com/default...41154421746347

For those in the New York area there is http://www.korin.com/

All 3 are excellent to do business with as well as selling knives a lot
better than the typical soft steel German/French styles.
