The Deba is a single bevel knife traditionally designed for filleting small and medium size fishes. Nowadays, it is used by many to break down and filleting small poultry too. Its heavy, sturdy structure allows it to easily cut small bones of fish and poultry but is not recommended on larger bones as it may chip. The 150mm size is ideal to be used for filleting smaller but also medium fish.

Led by 4th generation blacksmith Kazuomi Yamamoto, Yoshikane Hamono is a Japanese knife making company in Sanjo City, Niigata perfecture with over 100 years history. Founded in 1919 by Shimotajima, Yoshikane Hamono has been hand forging knives for 4 generations. The SKD11 Nashiji series (for which Yoshikane is famous) featured in our e-shop, is a semi-stainless steel with a very high carbon content (1.4 – 1.6), that can reach hardness up to HRC 64. That means excellent edge retention but at the same time this steel is easy to sharpen. It is stainless cladded therefore it requires less maintenance than a carbon steel knife. The fit and finish are impeccable and even though it’s not a laser but rather a sturdy knife, it’s very light and nimble with an impressive tapering down the spine. Very thin behind the edge and razor sharp out of the box. Fitted with a beautiful octagonal Wa Wenge handle. Comes in both single or double bevel versions. A combination knife to perform both the tasks of a slicer (like Sujihiki) and all-rounder (like Gyuto). The most part of the belly is flat to be used with push cuts and with a slightly curved, “K tip” nose it is perfect for small slicing and precise cuts. Recommended mainly for push cut, slice and chopping.
