Thanks, bought the Katto, liked the company/philosophy and that they are Uk based, loved the look of it (important) and if you sign up you get free sharpening which appeals if I can ever be arsed to send it back.
Going to make a little magnetic ply square to match the kitchen so it can be on display, but out of the knife drawer. Was tempted to have ‘do not put me in the dishwasher’ engraved on it.

Nice. Let us know what you think. The weighted handles look like a nice touch. I have been thinking of getting the bread knife from their range.
Yeah, magnetic strip is deffo best way to store knives IMO. I got a cheap bamboo one off amazon to match our worktop.
(Pls don’t tell me my knives are upside down. This is how we have them in our house!)

Yuzo are pretty decent for around that price. I have the petty & gyuto from their range that i bought for when i want to just do something quickly and not use my carbon steel knives and deal with drying/oiling etc
Very easy to care for with san mai stainless blades. Hammered finish is nice in the flesh. Handles are half decent too. i just wash mine and leave them in the rack. No dishwashers though, obvs.
Katto seem to be pretty much the same but with a slightly nicer weighted handle, and slightly more expensive - I’ve not tried them myself though.
Neither are super fancy by any means, but good workhorses that you won't need to be fussy with, and will last forever and hold an edge pretty well if you treat them well.
