Kenshiro Hatono was born in Awara City in northern Fukui Prefecture on January 6, 1989. This blacksmith is a student of the legendary master Katsuyasu Kamo from the knife village of Takefu (Echizen). After six years of apprenticeship, he began creating knives under his own name. The master creates knives mainly from Shirogami #1, Aogami Super and SG2 steel. His knives are distinguished by ultra-thin blade geometry and excellent balance. Kenshiro Hatono mainly makes Japanese knives with double-sided sharpening, such as the chef's knife gyuto, nakiri, santoku. The handles are most often made in the traditional Japanese style (wa-handle), using natural woods and stabilized materials.
