This is a Deba knife by Gihei. Deba knives are traditional Japanese knives specialized for processing fish, with a thick, sturdy spine that supports cutting through heads and bones. This piece shows only light signs of use and feels solid in hand.
The blade is single-bevel Hagane (carbon steel), offering excellent sharpness and bite into ingredients.
The knife has been sharpened and is ready to use immediately upon arrival. Please take care when opening the package. The listed price already includes the sharpening service.
It features the engraving “義兵衛作” (Gihei Saku). Its compact length and strong spine make it ideal for breaking down medium-sized fish for sashimi, grilled dishes, or sushi toppings.
