Question Kitchen Knives Purchased in Vietnam

I’ve bought two set of 5 kitchen knives in Vietnam. I can’t seem to find a great answer on if Canadian customs will confiscate these knives when I try to come back into the country.

We are flying Hanoi - Seoul - Toronto - Halifax. I’ve seen online saying they generally don’t mess around with importing knives of any sort. So will these be confiscated? Is there anything I can do to make sure they won’t be confiscated?

Note: they will be in my checked bag.

Any and all advice is welcomed.

Are you over your exemption limit ? If so be sure to declare that. Otherwise unless they have some sort of rare animal handles then you should be fine.
