Product Details
Crafted from White Steel #3 with a hardness rating of 63 on the Rockwell scale, the Deba showcases exquisite Hongasumi mist patterns on the blade's surface, a testament to the masterful forging technique employed.
This one-of-a-kind Yoshihiro Kasumi Deba knife features exclusive hand-etched designs using pure gold, elevating it beyond the functional to a true work of art. This knife displays Mt. Fuji with the rising sun made of Gold.
With an impressive blade length of 300mm (11.8"), this Deba knife is larger than typical versions, giving it the power to butcher and filet whole fish, including cutting through heads and bones with ease. Its fine tip is designed to expertly separate flesh from bones, ensuring precise cuts. Although perfect for fish, it can also be used for chicken and meat, though not recommended for cutting through large bones.
Complemented by a handcrafted Magnolia wood handle and a Water Buffalo horn bolster, this knife not only performs but also showcases the elegance of traditional Japanese craftsmanship.
This is more than just a tool—this limited edition Yoshihiro Kasumi knife is a statement piece, worthy of being displayed as a premium collectible, while still offering the extraordinary performance expected of Yoshihiro knives.
