Yoshimi Hino Knives
The Hino line started with a simple conversation. Customers kept telling Mark they loved the Masakage Yuki but were unsure about its oval magnolia handle, so he asked Yoshimi Kato if he would build a similar knife with a D-shaped handle and a different cladding. The result is Hino, named for the river that runs through Echizen, available exclusively at CKTG. Each blade is built around White 2 carbon steel hardened to 61 HRC, wrapped in a striking basketweave stainless cladding, and fitted with a comfortable sandalwood D-shaped handle.
