About Yoshimi Kato

Yoshimi Kato, a certified traditional craftsman, took over his father's company, KATO UCHI HAMONO, in 2018. His father, Kintaro Kato, began producing kitchen knives in 1928 and was awarded the Order of the Sacred Treasure, Silver Rays in 1987. Yoshimi Kato continues this legacy, producing knives in the Echizen region, a historic area known for its 700-year tradition of knife-making.

Love the blade but it is brittle

Laser

This knife is a work of art definitely a laser. Flys through food and that stamped pattern pushes foodlike potato away from the blade.

Yoshimi kato minamo is a light saber

I wasn’t expecting much from this knife to be honest. First thing I did when I got it was started at the choil and spine. WOW! The choil stopped me right in my tracks. The edge on this knife is so thin it’s ridiculous! Some people look for a razor, laser, or in this case. A light saber…. Highly recommend this knife to someone looking to up their knife game or celebrate an accomplishment.
