Yoshimi Kato Gyuto Knife 21 cm Damascus SG2 Octagon

The Yoshimi Kato Damascus SG2 chef’s knife with a length of 210 mm is a versatile tool, perfect for a variety of culinary tasks. It handles not only chopping but also slicing larger pieces of meat with precision and comfort. This unique knife was hand-forged by Yoshimi Kato, the son-in-law of Hiroshi Kato, who honed his skills under the guidance of masters such as Kanehiro and Hiroshi-San. In addition to creating knives for Masakage, Kato also has his own line of knives. The blade is made of modern SG2 powdered steel, which achieves an impressive hardness of 63 HRC on the Rockwell scale. The hard core is surrounded by 32 layers of damascus stainless steel, which create an eye-catching, dark pattern obtained through an etching process. The handle in a traditional octagonal shape provides a secure grip, even with wet hands. It is made of cherry wood, complemented by an element of pakka wood. Lovers of Japanese craftsmanship will surely appreciate Yoshimi Kato knives, which combine excellent aesthetics with exceptional performance.
