Arrived ahead of date promised and looks incredible! Another added to the collection. Super happy!
I enquired as to whether there was any spalted wood left and Josh was very quick to get back to me.
Customer service was excellent. Next day delivery. When the knife arrived, the unboxing was a wonderful experience. Beautiful packaging with a gorgeous scent as you open the box. The knife itself is of course a thing of pure beauty. I’ve never had a knife like it. I will treasure it and it has been making cooking such a joy! I would HIGHLY recommend!
Thank you Katto!
Been eyeing Katto's knives for a while, brought this for a friend but not entirely sure they're going to get it. My other knives are a couple of Yu Kurosaki Gekkos, Ryusen Hamono SG2 Gyuto and Nakiri and a Fujiwara Denka Santoku that is my pride and joy. So I have no need for a new knife. That said this Katto kitchen knife is a beauty, in the nicest way possible the website pictures don't do it justice. The fit and finish is on a par with my other knives, it's got a really nice rocking action as well as push cutting beautifully. It's not as thin behind the blade or as laser sharp as my other knives (which cost 2-4 times more), on the other hand neither is it as delicate or needing to be taken care of as some of them. Haven't had it long enough to know how well it'll hold an edge, but it's solid feel in the hand makes me think it'll be fine. Wanted to in particular mention the Equipoise handle, it's a beautiful piece of design, looks great and feels even better in the hand, a game changer. It's not quite as beautiful as my Japanese knives, but it costs half to quarter as much, is a great design, beautifully finished, bulletproof solid and, at the price, a real bargain.
