Knife Stores in Boise, Idaho

"I don't leave many reviews, and when I do they're usually bad. But I just picked up my knives from him this morning and I am absolutely thrilled. Best 70 bucks I've spent in a loooong time! Idk who else around here can give you next day turn around... but this man does/can as long as you give him the minimum of 6 knives for him to make the trip to drop off! I dropped my kitchen knives off to him Saturday at the farmers market and he was willing t..."

"I can’t say enough about the craftsmanship that Jonny and his crew put into my knife. I was a sous chef about 3 years ago and my most prized possession had been my Shun chef knife. Before I quit the industry, my knife had been put through the dish pit leaving it with big chips in the blade. I took it in to Jonny for sharpening and when they were finished with it, it was almost back to the condition I bought it in and SO sharp. I also couldn’t bel..."

"I've had sharpening service from several of the vendors and stores around Boise, but absolutely none have put an edge on a knife like IdaHoned has. I wouldn't now even think of taking my knives anywhere else. Not only are the knives sharp, but they are sharper than new condition, and the edge, being properly angled, lasts far longer than any of the other sharpenings I've had done. We've had our kitchen Japanese stainless (Global) knives sharpe..."

"These guys are great!! We are repeat customers for them and have gotten our bread knife/serrated knife tuned up by them. We’ve had a kitchen scissors and craft scissors (Fiskar) also tuned up. The craft scissors especially needed sharpening since they honestly couldn’t cut paper properly let alone fabric anymore and now they can cut through multiple layers of fabric, seams without a struggle. We always find them at the Boise Farmer’s market. The..."

"The staff at Nordic Knives are amazingly knowledgeable and easily approachable for help and guidance when It comes to in my case Randall made knives. I especially want to thank Dave Harvey a true gent for helping me with my collection. I contacted Nordic just before Christmas about a couple of my Randalls. My father and I have been collecting custom knives and doing the gun show circuit for decades and after he passed I never looked at our collec..."

"Thank you Dave: Well long story short, Im using a Chinese bank credit card while in Thailand try to make a purchase on a USA website. fist of all i never have a issue with my card for the pass 11 years, but this time on this purchase it shows on Nordic Knives online order system has identified my order as fraudulent. im quickly reaching out by calling the shop hope someone can help my out, and DAVE pick the phone, after i explant to him the who..."

"Nordic Knives is the kind of place where you can & will get small town service with big time knowledge. I have purchased 3 Shun Knives from them. They have sharpened my knives to a perfect edge. They have antiques & a veritable museum of niche works from around the world. My favorite works to visit (and dream of buying) are the miniature works. Imagine a pocket knife as tall as your thumb nail. They know their stuff & they offer a plethora of sev..."

"I have bought 3 knives from these guys and they are always shipped quickly , well packaged , priced fairly ,and believe it or not ,nicer than pictured ! They go over their knives and find any of the smallest flaws there might be and they write it in the description of the particular knife in question ! twice the have listed a slight flaw and when I received the knives I could not even see what was wrong with the naked eye ! they must take pride..."

"Wonder who wrote the last review due to the fact that Chris Reeve Knives does not grind serrated blades let alone render a customer's blade useless. If there is a problem with a used blade, the customer will be told why the blades could not be sharped, fixed, or otherwise. Chris and Clark have taught many customers how to sharpen their own. Chris is the first one to readily refund any customer who is not 100% satisfied. I trust the crew with ..."

"Chris Reeve Knives definitely go above and beyond when it comes to their clients. I recently shipped a knife for a spa treatment about a month ago, and there was a small confusion/mix up with my knife. Mrs. Reeve was extremely understanding and apologetic about the situation, and she went above and beyond on fixing the issue. Mrs. Reeve listened to my concern, and the team at Chris Reeve Knives fixed the problem in no time. Not only was I happy, ..."

"Best knife sharpening service in the area, not to mention their very high quality selection of blades they create in their shop. They even said they're able to do some custom designs. I'm going back real soon to pick up one of their designs, either the Pacific or Green Beret. They're very similar so it'll be a tough decision, afraid I'll end up walking out with both. *Update* Picked up a Pacific. Chris Reeve Knives is an amazing shop. One of Bois..."

"I’m so grateful that there is a company that still values their customers. I sent my first Chris Reeve knife in for the spa treatment and for some upgrades. Penny is amazing, she answered all my questions and even went as far as helping me pick out the right lanyard. She was patient kind and very caring. I will forever be a Chris Reeve knife fan for life. I currently own 8. Thank you so much Penny for making me feel like I was an old friend."

"I custom ordered this one of a kind, hand made, EDC utility knife from William Amoureaux of Amoureaux Knives. I served with Amoureaux in the Marine Corps and instantly recognized his expertise and commitment to quality and artistic ability. So when I found he was making knives, I had to have one. He worked with me on the blade design, asking what I would use it for and coming up with a design that fit me and my needs. I gave Will artistic lic..."

"From the minute I walked up, I knew it would be a great experience. Will provided great instruction, with history, science and insight into the forging process. Eye opening experience to see the hard work this profession entails. Would highly recommend and personally look forward to booking another appointment."

"Had a rehandle done and couldn't have been happier, im legit blown away that it fit back in Sheath, it only speaks to his superior craftsmanship that was produced, would not hesitate to recommend and support such fine American made work and craftsmanship, super talented 🙌 5 stars🇺🇸 …"

"Exceptional Service Every Time at Cabela’s Boise! My husband and I frequent the Boise Cabela’s often, and it’s because of the incredible customer service we always receive. From the friendly greeters and helpful cashiers to the knowledgeable staff on the floor, everyone consistently goes above and beyond. The biggest reason we keep coming back, though, is the amazing team at the gun counter — Darren, Brett, and Joey are absolutely outstanding! ..."

"Right now Santa's in the house they have now given him his own room. They also have a huge clearance section. They need to put some rod and reels over there. It does suck they got rid of the fudge after covid but it is what it is. I go there for ammo and fishing supplies. They do have a small boat parts section but no boats. They have a variety of other things for bow hunting, and camping. Occasionally four wheelers and kayaking stuff. I think it..."

"Bought a new P226 here. Staff were friendly and the background check took a little longer than normal. The manager thanked me for my patience and everyone was generally very helpful and nice. The store is absolutely gigantic and I can probably spend hours in here just looking at everything. Will be back for sure."

"The store itself isn't bad, but I wouldn't buy hunting tags from them. I had an elk hunt planned for months and had vacation set aside months in advance, and went to the Boise store to buy a brownlee elk zone tag and the cashier some me a Boise River elk zone despite me specifically telling them I didn't want a Boise River tag. Idfg wouldn't change my tag because I didn't notice until the Boise river bull hunt was almost over. I want and to hunt ..."

"Amazing staff and a very nice store. I came in to buy gifts for a wedding registry on Wednesday and the staff were immediately helpful and engaged with me. The lady who helped me had just started working there 2 weeks ago, yet she was very knowledgeable and seemed to know where everything was in the store. I walked in as a stranger but left feeling like I had known this employee for years. She was very kind and worked with me for at least half an..."

"The staff was very unaccommodating. Their inventory showed they had 2 of the item I wanted (also showed as available online), but they couldn't find them. I had driven a long way to make the purchase. When I asked about shipping it, they said they could for a shipping fee. I asked if there was an exception under the circumstances. The associate said there were no exceptions. I interacted with all 3 associates trying to resolve the matter - no one..."

"The store used to be great with amazing items, but the staff's behavior was a major disappointment. About a year ago, my mom and I stopped going there after a particularly very bad experience. We stood in line for over an hour, but when it was finally our turn, they ignored us and helped others instead. This happened repeatedly, even when they opened a new register next to us. It seemed clear they were avoiding us, and we waited for nearly two ho..."

"Williams Sonoma was once my go to place for anything kitchen. Their price increases this year are downright robery. Example, their olive oil and balsamic are now close to $40 each. These were $30 each just six months ago, and they used to sell both together for $50. Someone mentioned the tarrifs. Ha, these come from California! Further, most of their plateware comes from China and I do not want that poor quality. I'm done."

"Had my chaps repaired with suspenders added, God to a couple holsters done up they do everything I need them to do. And what's most special to me is High Desert Horses made me a custom hunting knife. What a great job they did on everything. I'm sure I'll be ordering more stuff in the future. Great shipping times, As I'm in Arizona. Ever get a chance to tour there shop do it, take some money.😎"

"Incredible store !! Great quality products and great service!"

"There's a custom knife and leather shop located here. You can watch the craftsman do his work right behind the showcases!"
