Kintaro Knives (Made by Master Hiroshi Kato)

Kato-san started his blacksmithing apprenticeship in 1960 under his father. He runs a very professional workshop and has even taken on great apprentices like Yu Kurosaki and Toru Tamura. Even after over 57 years of knife making, he's still inspired by the thought of people using his knives to prepare food. When making knives he's always thinking about balance, and where the knife needs to be thin and where it needs to be strong. Hiroshi Kato is now one of the senior blacksmiths at Takefu Knife Village. He received the certification of the traditional craftsmen of Japan in 2008, and now runs this small forge from the Takefu Knife Village in Echizen. He is one of the founders of the village established over 20 years ago as a co-op for education and distribution for cutlery of the prominent bladesmiths of Echizen. Other notable range of knives made by Master Hiroshi Kato includes Masakage Koishi AS.


Kanehiro was founded in 1953 by Kintaro Kato (1914) who began forging kitchen cutlery in 1928. The company has built up a vast array of experience and knowledge of knife making and is one of the most respected forges in Echizen. We are pleased to bring to you these knives made by Master Hiroshi Kato under the brand Kintaro.
