Founded in 2018 by the dynamic duo of Josh and Thomas, Katto was born out of a simple desire for exceptional kitchenware that not only looked stunning but also embraced a strong commitment to sustainability.
The journey of Katto began over a disappointing lasagna, where Josh shared his dream of kitchenware that possessed both aesthetics and a strong sustainability ethos. Thus, over the clinking of forks and the undercooked pasta, Katto was conceived—a brand that marries craftsmanship, sustainability, and affordability.
Knives
At the core of Katto’s offerings are their handmade knives. Crafted in their Sheffield workshop, each knife tells a story of meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail. The blades are forged from Japanese AUS-10 steel, ensuring a perfect blend of sharpness and durability. Paired with sustainable woods, these knives are not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing.
Katto believes in simplicity and practicality, offering only the four knife sizes you’ll ever need. By focusing on essential tools, they’ve mastered the art of simplicity without compromising on quality.
Cast Iron Cookware
Katto’s commitment to owning fewer, better things finds its purest expression in their collection of cast iron cookware. Timeless, elegant, and versatile, cast iron cookware is a symbol of culinary heritage. With minimal care, these pieces become heirlooms, lasting not just years but generations.
The collection includes a stockpot, a sauté pan, and a skillet—all in a sleek matte black finish. Forged to perfection by the best artisans in France, the home of cast iron, these pans are a testament to Katto’s dedication to quality and authenticity.
Pasta Tools
For pasta enthusiasts, Katto’s handmade walnut tools are a dream come true. From a beautifully crafted board for penne and gnochetti to the perfect ravioli cutter and a lovely dough scraper, these tools are a celebration of the art of pasta making. Made by skilled hands using the finest American black walnut, each piece is not just a tool but a work of art.
