What is a Deba Knife?
The Deba is a traditional Japanese butchery knife. Characterised by its thick spine and a fine, incredibly sharp edge, it is the go-to tool for breaking down whole fish. Its weight is used to cut cleanly through the heads and bones of small to medium-sized fish, and the pointed tip is used to navigate along the backbone to create perfect fillets.
