Satori Katana has +500% Crit Damage but no Crit chance. Most Knives have an added + 10-20 Crit Chance, which added on top of whatever you have as Crit chance (as base or modded) is enough to trigger the most amount of damage possible from it. Using the Satori requires to increase your Crit Chance and its base damage every level you get. Its base damage is also lower that other Katana at the same level and was adjusted in a recent patch.
It's been nerfed and requires more investment.

I think Satori is a little bit "broken" or "nerfed" at least.
I use it with 100% crit chance + 300% crit damage (clothe mods), plus 590% crit damage on satori, and I never pass up to 15-20K damage (legendary Satori level 40-42). 15-20K damage, it's way less than before and way less than other weapon type (who have no +600% crit damage).
Well, I'm not going to lie, that's enough for "one-shot" mostly everything, but "it's low".

It was nerfed for sure but now, seeing you numbers, I could think that they have broke its damage calculation.
BUT!
Let's round numbers from what you have as 250 base damage ( about right at this level) / 100% crit chance / 1000% crit damage
Note that 100% crit chance is a factor of 1 and 1000% crit damage is a factor of 10
Here is the formula.
Base Damage * (1 - Crit Chance) + Average Damage * Crit Chance * (1 + Crit Damage) * Attacks per second
250 * (1 - 1) + 250 * 1 * (1+10) * 5
250 x 1 = 250
+
250 x 1 x 11 = 2,750
=
3000
x
5
=
15,000 Damage per second.
Here you go.
Not broken.
NERFED!

A problem, when I said 15-20k damage, it's in one hit
(and 15K per hit are quite similar with black unicorn who don't have this giant crit damage bonus).

My little test
Fully upgraded Satori and Black Unicorn, they does not longer appear in the upgrade tab (DPS are useless, it's one hit kill for both).
Character : 100% crit chances / 294% crit damage.
Satori : 268 dmg / 183-224 physical dmg / 610% crit dmg
Black Unicorn : 284 dmg / 183-224 physical dmg / 110% crit dmg
So yes, Satori deal way more dmg (around the double), but it have about 5 times more crit bonus normally (610% instead of 110% for Black Unicorn). So it seem to be "low" at the end
