Frequently Asked Questions

What is your return policy?

What if my order arrives damaged or faulty?

If your order arrives incomplete, damaged, or defective, please contact info@thecustomchef.ca with your order number and a brief description (photos help, too). If the product is confirmed faulty, we will cover the return shipping and send you a replacement or refund—whichever is most suitable.

How long will delivery take?

Orders are dispatched within 1–3 business days and usually delivered within 5–7 business days after payment is received. Deliveries are made via Purolator to Canadian addresses and P.O. boxes. You will receive a tracking number once your order ships. Please note that delivery times may vary depending on your location and stock availability.

Currently, we only ship within Canada.

What does the Cuisine::pro® Lifetime Guarantee cover?

All products from THE CUSTOM CHEF are backed by the Cuisine::pro® LIFETIME GUARANTEE, provided by Global Retail Brands Canada Limited. This covers defects in materials and workmanship for 25 years under normal domestic use and proper care. It does not cover normal wear and tear, misuse, or improper cleaning. To make a claim, please contact info@thecustomchef.com, and our Customer Service Team will guide you through the process.

How should I care for my knives?

Hand-wash with mild soap and warm water, then dry immediately. Avoid dishwashers and cutting on hard surfaces like stone or glass. Regular honing keeps your blade sharp—professional sharpening may be needed only once a year with proper care.

    SUPER satisfied with this product. Especially after two large let downs with other items this Christmas.

    I will definitely order from The Custom Chef again.

    Excellent Cleaver

    This is the third cleaver I have and previous two (another brand) has no comparison with the Emperor. It is sharp, strong enough to cut thru bones with little effort. I wish I have this cleaver earlier and it will save me lot of time and efforts. Even better with the great deal when buying it with the Chief knives. Strongly recommended.

    Don't be scared! Get a cleaver!

    Don't be scared, get a cleaver. My Baccarat Damashiro Emperor really does "rule". Easily cuts through pineapple and sweet potato. My stir fry's look restaurant quality with the vegetables evenly sliced.
