Experience a Vintage Japanese Deba

A vintage Japanese Deba in carbon steel - a single-bevel fish-breaking knife built for filleting, portioning, and heading whole fish. At 150mm it is the classic home-kitchen Deba size, precise enough for detailed work yet robust enough for the task.

The Specs

  • Steel: Carbon steel
  • Blade length: 150mm
  • Bevel: Single bevel (right-hand)
  • Handle: Wood
  • Origin: Made in Japan
  • Condition: Vintage / pre-owned

Heritage

The Deba is one of Japan's most specialised traditional knives - its thick spine and single-bevel grind are engineered specifically for breaking down whole fish, from heading and gutting to filleting. This vintage example carries the honest character of a working knife from a different era: carbon steel that takes a keen edge and develops a natural patina with use. A one-of-a-kind piece not available anywhere else.

Care & Maintenance

  • Hand wash only - never dishwasher
  • Dry immediately after washing
  • Apply a light coat of food-safe oil to the carbon steel blade to prevent rust
  • Single bevel - sharpen on the flat (ura) side only; use a whetstone on the bevel side
  • Store on a magnetic rack or in a knife roll
