Currently, Yoshimi Kato's knives are mainly sold in our physical stores.
Yoshimi Kato is a highly talented blacksmith who is the son-in-law of Hiroshi Kato, one of Takefu Knife Village's original founders and former teacher of Yu Kurosaki.
After taking over his father-in-law's company in 2017, Kato has never failed to wow his customers around the world with his stunning heat-treated metallurgy. His R2/SG2 "black damascus" series is among his most iconic, possessing a remarkably fine edge and providing an exceptionally precise cutting feel unparalleled by most steels on the market today.
Kato, like other Takefu craftsmen, also makes knives under the renowned knifemaking collective Masakage.
