The Deba knife is a traditional Japanese knife, that\u2019s primarily used for cutting fish. The knife has been specifically designed for tasks such as filleting fish<\/a> and removing the fish\u2019s heads. In addition to that, it can, of course, be used for cutting other meat.<\/p>\n Thanks to its significant weight, the knife can handle small bones that may, for example, be encountered when breaking down a chicken. However, larger bones should be avoided, as the knife is not designed for them and they may cause damage to the edge of the knife. The area near the handle is the best part of the edge to use for bones.<\/p>\n The spine of the Deba knives tapers along its length, which results in a surprisingly thin tip. Thanks to this thin tip, the knife can be used even for some delicate tasks such as removing bones.<\/p>\n The center area of the edge is best used for slicing.<\/p>\n Traditionally, carbon steel was utilized for these knives. As you may know, carbon steel requires maintenance. Therefore, modern Deba knives are mostly made of stainless steel, which doesn\u2019t require as much care.<\/p>\n In a hurry?
