It gives exceptional sharpness, edge retention, durability, and ease of sharpening at the same time. Thanks to the ultra sharp edge and tip of the blade, you can easily fillet your fish or meat with super precision. It’s single-edged for right handers.

SUSHI FILET SPECIALIST - The Deba knife is designed to butcher and fillet whole fish. The blade is made according to the Japanese tradition, with Shinogi on the front side and Urasuki on the back. The ultra sharpness and the heft of the blade make it effortless to cut through the heads and bones of whole fish. You can use it for chicken and other meats, too. The ergonomically designed D-shape Magnolia wood handle and perfectly balanced construction make you comfortable at each use.

MAINTENANCE AND CAUTIONS - The knife is recommended only for chefs with proper knowledge of usage and maintenance. The blade is not stainless. The stain doesn’t affect the performance or the food you cut. To minimize the stain, wash with mild detergent and dry well after the use. Apply some oil before storage. Hand wash only. Avoid cutting through large bones of chicken and meat. If properly sharpened on quality whetstones, the unbelievable sharpness lasts for years to come.
