This knife, featuring a traditional single-edged grind, offers superior edge retention and the ability to achieve a finer edge compared to the Kasumi Deba made from White Steel #2. Ideal for intermediate chefs, it arrives ready to use right out of the box, complete with a magnolia wood sheath, knife oil, and rust eraser.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned specifically for carving and filleting fish, the Hongasumi Deba is a heavy knife that excels in both filleting and butchering tasks. Its single-edged blade and robust construction ensure that it effortlessly cuts through the flesh and meat of fish, making it an essential tool in any kitchen. The term Hongasumi refers to a higher quality Kasumi knife, crafted by layering softer steel over a hard steel core. This unique construction not only enhances sharpness but also provides exceptional durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHandcrafted in Japan using traditional techniques, this knife features a completely flat ground on the front (shinogi) and a concave ground (urasuki) with a flat rim (uraoshi) on the back. The hard, high carbon Blue Steel #2 allows artisans to create a thin, sharp cutting edge, ensuring that every slice is precise. Complementing the blade is a traditional Japanese octagonal handle made from Ebony Wood, offering a comfortable grip for extended use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProper care is essential to maintain the knife's performance. Sharpening and honing should only be done with water whetstones, and the knife should be hand-washed and dried immediately after use, especially when working with acidic ingredients. It is designed for use exclusively on boneless flesh of fish, ensuring longevity and peak performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content\" id=\"specs\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKnife Specs:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHRC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 63-64\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hongasumi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBolster Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStain Resistant:\u003c\/strong\u003e No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Shape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Octagonal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blue Steel #2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSaya Cover:\u003c\/strong\u003e Magnolia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEdge Angle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single Edged\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Yoshihiro Cutlery","offers":[{"title":"7\" (180mm)","offer_id":42354255823078,"sku":"HKDE180EHMS","price":479.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0505\/4778\/5915\/products\/yoshihiro-hongasumi-blue-steel-deba-fish-fillet-chef-knife-ebony-handle-MAIN.jpg?v=1753476446","url":"https:\/\/echefknifv.com\/products\/yoshihiro-hongasumi-blue-steel-deba-fish-fillet-chef-knife-ebony-handle","provider":"Yoshihiro Cutlery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
