Takeshi Saji


Takeshi Saji Gingami No.3 Wa Bocho Series Deba (150mm to 180mm, 3 Sizes, Stag Handle)

Availability: Normally ships the same day


At the first glance, you might think that the unfamiliar features of these Japanese traditional-style knife will mean that it is not suitable for use in your kitchen. However, Master Saji has made no compromises in the cutting performance or functionality of this unconventional looking knife.

The blade is made of Hitachi Gingami No.3 stainless steel, which is highly regarded for its edge sharpness and edge retention, in addition to its strong resistance to corrosion and low maintenance requirements.

To ensure that the stag antler handle is comfortable and secure to grip, Master Saji carefully selected the material for each handle and checked the consistency of its diameter and overall shape.

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.

    Excellent knife

    Excellent knife. The handle is nice and thick, with a good amount of traction. Stainless steel simplifies care, but sharpness is almost the same as in carbon knives. Factory sharpening is good, but not up to my standards (and it has micro-bevel, which I don't like). After re-sharpening the blade is razor sharp and easily cuts fish bones (not to mention that it slices through skin and flesh effortlessly). The steel is still strong enough not to chip when separating fish heads. I'm happy with this purchase.

    This knife is a wonderful investment: glides through the meat and along the spine, ginsanko is an easy steel to maintain, and the handle is surprisingly comfortable dispite my assumption when first holding it.
