Very impressive and the unique Kurouchi (“Black-forged”) finish of the blade and its beautiful color gradation. The Kurouchi finished section of the blade (See Top-half) also has a unique Tsuchime (“Hammered pattern”) texture. It contrasts beautifully with the cloudy grey colored Kasumi (“True mist”) finished upper blade bevel and the shining silver of the polished cutting edge.
A cutting edge of high carbon Hitachi White Steel No.2 that is welded forged with soft iron for increased toughness and ease of re-sharpening. White Steel No.2 is a pure Japanese high carbon steel and popular carbon steel for high cutting performance and ease of re-sharpening.
We offer you a choice of two different types of handle:
The Japanese Deba, which is also called the Hon-deba (Literally, “true deba"), is traditionally used to clean and fillet whole fish, but it is also commonly used for breaking down and dressing poultry and other meat with small bones. The significant weight of the Deba is desirable because, with adequate care, the sturdy heel section of the knife can be used to cut or chop through the bones found in small and medium-sized fish and poultry.
This knife is WOW! From the efficient fast delivery to the craftsmanship and superb finish, everything was first class. This is a company that cares and goes the extra mile to ensure complete satisfaction, even sending follow up emails on how to care and clean for your knife. The knife itself is excellent, keeping the sharpest of edges and feeling well balanced in the hand. One of my best knife purchases and will definitely be purchasing more. Can’t rate this high enough!…. Very pleased 😀
I don’t know how I lived my life without this piece. The heel and the weight makes it easy to execute cutting chicken. The quality for the price is too good. Making filling fish easy.

The kurouchi Finnish on this particular deba gives it an extra level of durability and protection that I appreciate. It adds a hefty feel and roughness to its character. Although its not usually my style, it fits this deba well. It has no discoloration on the cutting edge even though I keep it out on a magnetic strip. All that and it’s still cuts like a razor. I have not had to touch it up yet.
My son requested this knife specifically on his Christmas wish list. He is enjoying using it and says the quality and hand comfort of this knife are great. The packaging and shipping were well executed. The shipment arrived from Japan to Florida, USA in just 3 days. Thanks!
