Noshu Masamune Deba KnifeA deba is a traditional Japanese knife used for breaking down fish, known for its thick and durable blade.This knife is single-beveled and made of stainless steel, so it is rust-resistant and easy to maintain. It appears to be a slim deba / funayuki-style knife that was likely used very little, if at all.It has been sharpened and is ready to use upon arrival. Please handle with care when unpacking. The price includes the sharpening service.It features the engraving “濃州孫六作” (Noshu Magoroku-made).A slimmer deba/funayuki profile can feel easier to control than a thick deba, which makes it approachable for home fish prep while still keeping that Japanese knife character.Length: 290mmBlade Length: 155mmBlade Width: 47mmBlade Thickness: 3mmWeight: 138gSHARPENED by a Japanese Sharpener.
