Kiritsuke Deba knife, Shirogami 2 Carbon steel, Polished finish, Tokujo range - Sakai Takayuki
Sakai Takayuki have a long and distinguished history of producing truly excellent knives using expertise that has been passed down generations.
SHAPE: Deba. This is one of three quintessential single bevelled Japanese knives and is used for fish breakdown and preparation. Unlike a western filleting knife, this thing has no flex at all and is substantial in weight. This is to aid in bone cutting and allows the edge to be sharpened to hair popping levels while still giving in strength. This version has a funky drop on the tip.
STEEL: Shirogami (white) 2 steel. It is a reactive carbon steel which is easy to sharpen and holds an edge well. This steel is often chosen for traditional-style Japanese knives. Due to the non stainless nature of this steel care must be taken to dry the knives properly after use.
FINISH: Polished
HANDLE: D shaped magnolia handle with black buffalo horn ferule
BLADE LENGTH: 180mm
RANGE: Tokujo
MAKER: Sakai Takayuki
