Yoshimi Kato Gyuto Knife 24 cm Damascus SG2 Octagon

Yoshimi Kato Damascus SG2 Chef’s Knife – 240 mm

The Yoshimi Kato Damascus SG2 chef’s knife (240 mm) is a versatile tool, ideal for a variety of culinary tasks. It performs perfectly for both chopping vegetables and slicing larger pieces of meat, ensuring precision and comfort. Each piece is hand-forged by Yoshimi Kato – a master craftsman and son-in-law of Hiroshi Kato. His artistry was shaped under the guidance of outstanding creators such as Kanehiro and Hiroshi-San. In addition to collaborating with the Masakage brand, Kato also creates his own line of knives, which is valued by professionals and cooking enthusiasts. The blade is made of modern SG2 powdered steel, which achieves an impressive hardness of 63 HRC on the Rockwell scale. The core is surrounded by 32 layers of damascus stainless steel, which create an eye-catching, dark pattern obtained through an etching process. The ergonomic, octagonal handle guarantees a secure grip, even with wet hands. Made of natural cherry wood and finished with a ferrule of pakka wood, it harmoniously combines traditional style with durability and comfort. Yoshimi Kato knives are a combination of Japanese craftsmanship, refined aesthetics, and excellent performance – an ideal choice for demanding chefs.
