Deba Knives

The deba is Japan traditional fish knife - thick-spined, single-bevel, and built to break down whole fish with authority. A hon deba handles everything from separating fillets to cutting through small bones, while a yo deba offers a double-bevel alternative for cooks new to single-bevel technique. We carry deba knives from Tojiro, Moritaka, and Takayuki across a range of sizes from compact 105mm blades to full-sized 195mm+ debas for larger fish and heavier work.
