Product description

The Ikeuchi Deba Shirogami #2 Tsuchime is a specialized single bevel deba knife designed primarily for filleting fish and poultry. However, due to its relatively thin spine (3.0mm), it can also be used as a versatile santoku-like knife for various kitchen tasks.

The blade of this Deba knife is made from White steel #2 (Shirogami) and exhibits visible hammer marks and a kuro-uchi protective patina, which appears as a black part on top of the blade. The blade is forged to a hardness of 61-62 HRC, providing excellent edge retention. It is important to note that knives made from White steel #2 require experienced knife owners who are knowledgeable about handling and caring for high-carbon knives, as they tend to develop a patina over time.

The handle of the Ikeuchi Deba is constructed from Magnolia wood, which is commonly used in traditional Japanese knife handles. It features a plastic ferrule for added durability and stability during use.
