Masahiro MS-8 Deba Knife 135mm [10004]

Deba is a Japanese-style knife used mainly for cutting fish but also meat. They come in many sizes, from 120 to 300mm. The cutting edge is very durable, so it can handle cutting off a fish’s head or cutting small bones. The deba knife is sharpened on one side, and can easily handle filleting or portioning.

The knives from this line are made of a VG-10 derivative, molybdenum-vanadium, high-carbon, stainless steel called MBS-26, which was subjected to a three-stage hardening process until it reached a hardness of 58-59 HRC. Each blade was perfected by craftsmen with over 30 years of experience, elevating Masahiro knives to a level of incredible sharpness.

The handle was made with characteristic Japanese attention to detail from light magnolia wood reinforced with a plastic ring.
