Ebros Japanese Sushi Chef Filetting Deba Knife Made In Japan 420J2 160mm

•This high performance deba knife is made in Japan by the blade smiths of Seki City. They have been making some of the world's finest cutlery for more than 700 years. The blade is hand-hammered, shaped, tempered and cooled. After the blacksmith has completed his/her work, a dedicated edge crafter puts on each edge by hand using a combination of wheels and stones. The result is precision cutting and incredible sharpness.•Measurements: 12" Long and 2 1/8"H approximately. Blade part is 6.25" long. Single bevel (stainless steel 420J2) 160mm. The knife weighs about 6 ounces. The knife is designed for right hand users.•The blade is made of high quality stainless steel and the handle of natural wood.•Debas are thick, stout knives traditionally used in Japan for filleting fish. Some users adapt the edge of these knives to other kitchen tasks such as parting out poultry or for use as a vegetable cleaver but the knife is designed to excel in the preparation of fish.•This is an Ebros Gift exclusive kitchen collection. Handwash in warm water and towel dry. Do not cut frozen foods. Use a sharpening stone, not a honing steel, to re-sharpen your Japanese chef knives.
