Fast Turnaround: Our typical text engraving process takes approximately 5–15 minutes per knife. There’s no need to worry—engraving won’t delay your order.

1. Enter Your Text: Use the engraving input box on the product page to type your desired text. We support Japanese, Chinese, and English characters (emojis are not supported).
2. Review Your Entry: Double-check for accuracy, as the text will be engraved exactly as entered.
3. Add to Cart: Once your engraving is set, add the knife to your cart — the engraving is automatically included.
4. Proceed to Checkout: Complete your purchase as usual.

We also offer Tiger, Dragon, and Koi engravings, which can be added to your order separately.

Custom Designs: Interested in engraving a custom design or logo? Here's how it works:

• Starting Fee: Custom engraving begins at $49.
• File Requirements: Please email an Adobe Illustrator (.ai) file of your design to info@echefknife.com.
• No Illustrator File? We can work from a black-and-white image or drawing, but this requires additional time and may incur extra charges.
• Complex Designs: Highly detailed or intricate artwork will take longer to process and may be subject to higher fees.
• Manual Tracing: If your design needs to be manually traced or cleaned up, it may delay your order and increase the cost.

We ask that all custom artwork be high-contrast, clearly defined, and easy to interpret. This ensures the cleanest engraving and helps avoid delays.

Engraved knives are final sale and not eligible for refunds or returns.
