Knife Stores in Los Angeles, California

"I called before I went in, they help me over the phone they are very knowledgeable of the things they sell. When I arrived they already had my item just ready to pay and go. Easy"

"I have an infinite love of gourmet markets and shops that stock items for my #culinaryadventures I have been coming to Surfas since they were located in Culver City. This location is crammed tight with stuff to make your epicurean heart sing. From butters, cheeses, pastas, jams, olive oils, Asian food accompaniments, seasonings, gadgets, pots, pans, chocolates, nuts ETC. they have everything here. We went 2 weeks ago when they were have a HUGE s..."

"My visit to Surfas Culinary District exceeded expectations! I came in for stainless steel pots and pans, leaving with much more. Besides restaurant supplies, they have a great food section with everything from olive oil to chocolates, paste, flour, meat, and sprinkles. I'm a sucker for in-store sampling, and I had the bread and butter--it was amazing! Who knew bread tasted so good? I also sampled Lebanon Honey, which was so delicious that I purch..."

"Wow, I wandered in on a local excursion (I wanted to see the house used for Six Feet Under, it’s just down the street) and saw this place. As a good writer and home cook/baker, I love a good kitchen supply store and Surfas was simply overwhelming in scope and product—so much for the professional food service and many items that are hard to find for bakers, cake makers, just so many tools. Not to mention an entire refrigerator case dedicated to bu..."

"The Worm lost her buck knife so I got her an cricket so we came here with the Ant to get the new knife sharpened and brought a pair of scissors too. They do such a good job of sharpening. Also I love looking around here, it's one of the best old school retailers left in downtown Los Angeles, it's interesting to see the tools of the trade for chefs and barbers, as well as everything else. While they were sharpening we decided to see if there was ..."

"Excellent sharpening services! Easy drop off and pickup of kitchen, folding, and garden shears. Handled Wustofs with care and the sharpening is A+! All of the folding knives are like new including serrated. I dropped off large kitchen, half dozen steak, and a variety of others. Would definitely recommend this for your sharpening needs! Prices are very reasonable at $1 per inch on kitchen, flat fee on folders. Store is really big and stocked with ..."

"Stopped by to refresh my kitchen knives and I’m glad I did! They have all sorts of sharp things for all sorts of needs. Extensive inventory at a decent price. Staff was super helpful at giving me suggestions, explaining German vs Japanese steel and letting me try knives to get the feel/weight of them. I walked away with a shun santoku and wouldn’t hesitate to come back again!"

"I have shopped at Ross since the late 90's. I purchased almost all my knifes from there, then got out of knife collecting and am back after 25 years. I have purchased a Protech auto a few months ago, and now a Microtech drop that has caught my eye. I bought the original Socoms there, and now I will get two of the new Socom elites! Best knife store in the west"

"On one Friday afternoon, I just so happened to walk into this location and received some of the best customer experience I’ve ever had. Within 5-10 minutes of being in the store, I was greeted by Parker. Parker went on to spend the next 45 minutes or so educating me on my potential purchase, utility types and differing variations. Parker took into consideration so many things such as my current kitchenware, what I’d be using the kitchenware for ..."

"I went in looking for exactly 2 items. I found one myself, but the other was incredibly difficult to locate. When I finally found a staff member for help, he disappeared for about 10 minutes and came back saying he couldn’t find any. I then asked another employee, who told me they had four in stock. I waited another 20 minutes, but no one followed up, and I ended up wandering around the store multiple times trying to find it myself. No one seeme..."

"Whilst shopping for a Green Pan SS nonstick pan, Adam presented me with an 8, 10 or 12 inch option, all at full price. I asked if any were on promotion as it was Presidents’ Day week, and was told no. So I happily purchased the 8 in pan for $99. Upon returning home I was surprised to see a 10 & 12 inch set of the same exact pans on sale for $129…when I tried to return/exchange my unused pan for the set, without its packaging (but with my receipt)..."

"Where do I even begin?? I entered the store in search of a cast iron skillet and left with an education, two new friends, and hope. I was greeted warmly by Rob, a ruggedly handsome associate who walked with the confident swagger of a true man's man. We quickly bonded over our love-hate relationship with certain Netflix shows. He taught me the differences between stainless steel and cast iron pans as well as care instructions for each. Before I k..."
