Every knife a home kitchen needs, in one box. Chef, bread, slicing, santoku, utility and paring knives, plus steak knives, pull-apart shears, a honing steel and a solid acacia block in the full set. Choose the 15-, 9- or 7-piece block, or the 7- or 5-piece set without a block.
Every blade is 7Cr17 high-carbon stainless steel, hardened to HRC 57–58 and ground to a 15° edge — sharper than the 20° on most Western sets, and rust- and stain-resistant with basic care. Full-tang Pakkawood handles with a sloped bolster for a proper pinch grip, and a laser-etched Damascus-style pattern on every blade.
You can feel the difference with each cut. Precision control at heel and tip. Butter-smooth slicing at center.

Our Features
Our Features
Premium Steel
Yatoshi knives are made with 7CR17 steel, which offers an excellent balance of sharp edge retention and durability and has significantly more carbon content than other “premium” knives.
Unique Sloped Bolster
Our unique sloped bolster pulls double duty: the sloped shape encourages a proper “pinch grip” for comfort and control, while the bolster’s placement creates better access to the full length of the blade.
Pakkawood Handle
The Pakkawood handle seamlessly blends comfort with softness, offering an optimal grip. Their ergonomic design strikes a perfect balance between the handle and the slim blade, ensuring effortless maneuverability.

WHY WE DESIGNED THIS
We wanted to design something special that brings us so much joy in our day-to-day lives. The focus was on how we could add a bit more personality to our everyday kitchen.
I bought this set for my son and daughter-in-law. It arrived with a cracked block, but a replacement block was sent quickly. Customer support and communication with this issue were great. The kids report loving the knives so far! They look good, are very sharp out of the box, and work well.
They are very sharp, look good and feel good in the hand- but I was sad that the Damascus steel doesn’t look like the photos. The lines are very pale and you have to turn the knife to just the right angle in order to see them. Not as pictured.
Love how sharp the blades are. If your'e gonna spend $200+ on knives, definitely recommend going with Yatoshi! I got the Classic Kitchen Knife Set and love the variety it gives you.
Had no issues ordering and the shipping was quick. It has been about three weeks now and we have used the knives and they are great! They look fabulous and can cut with ease.
Take note: you will need to hand wash these and dry right after washing so no rust area will occur.
This an absolutely beautiful set for the price!! The knives are beautiful and the Damascus etching gives it a great look without having the price tag Damascus would have. The break apart scissors are great, it makes it easy to keep them sanitary. I make sure to hand wash and dry them immediately and have no rust issues. The wooden block is gorgeous!!
Very sharp and good looking knife set. Well balanced with very comfortable handles. the Damascus blades definitely add to the great looks of this knife set.
These are the WORST knives ever. I loved the etched design in the images but they arrived with some of the blades already pitted with black spots. The knife edges were not very sharp. I washed and dried them hoping the discoloration would come off. It didn’t. Now they show rust all over. These have always been strictly hand washed. Didn’t take long for the scissors to break. I do not recommend these knives at all. Let’s see if you post this review.
Very happy with them. Just make sure you wash and dry them when you finish with them. We let one of the knives sit in the sick over night and I got a tiny rust stain on it.
Excellent set of knives for anything you come across in the kitchen. Block and knives are excellent quality, shipping was quick and they look stunning!
