Glestain 6.3 in. (160mm) Deba

Finding a stainless steel deba that honors the traditional single-bevel grind is a common challenge. The Glestain 216WK, forged from Acuto 440 steel, offers a superior solution. Many stainless alternatives resort to a pronounced secondary bevel, which can hinder the precise work a deba is designed for. In contrast, the Glestain employs a modified single bevel; its shinogi line drops to a razor-sharp edge with only a minimal micro-bevel on the back. This design maintains the acute angle and clean cutting of a classic chisel grind while providing the durability and ease of care of stainless steel.
