This is a Deba knife from Azuma Masamune. Deba knives are used for breaking down fish, with thick, heavy blades that can be used powerfully around heads and bones. While some patina typical of Hagane steel is present, the sharpened edge shows a bright, clean silver. The handle still retains its original seal.
The knife has a single-bevel Hagane (carbon steel) blade, offering excellent sharpness and durability.
It has been sharpened, so it is ready to use immediately upon arrival. Please handle with care when unpacking. The price includes the sharpening fee.
It features engravings "東正宗作" (Azuma Masamune-Made) and "手打" (Hand-Forged), and the handle carries its original seal.
This Deba is a strong choice for users who frequently process whole fish, including those preparing ingredients for sushi, sashimi, and Japanese seafood dishes.
