Japanese Deba Knife 175mm Gojome 五城目 kitchen knife

The Japanese Deba Knife in 175mm from Gojome (五城目), a renowned region in Akita Prefecture celebrated for its exceptional blacksmithing heritage, exemplifies traditional Japanese craftsmanship tailored for precision fish butchery. This robust single-bevel blade, forged from high-carbon steel, features a thick spine that tapers elegantly toward a sharp, sensitive tip, enabling effortless filleting of whole fish, decapitation, and even cracking small bones or shellfish like crab claws with controlled force. At 175mm, it's an ideal mid-sized option for both professional chefs and home cooks handling medium-sized catches, such as mackerel or sea bream, while its substantial weight ensures stability and durability during heavy-duty tasks.
