Minonokuni Ume 165mm Left Handed Deba
The Minonokuni Ume 165mm Left Handed Deba is primarily used to break down whole fish and poultry. This is a thick, heavy blade designed to efficiently cleave fillets from the bone. The choice between 165 and 180mm sizes really comes down to comfort in controlling the knife and size of fish to be cut. The steel type used in this blade SK5 also known as Yellow Paper. This is the softest and most forgiving of the steels used in traditional hand-forged Japanese knives which means that this knife will need to be sharpened more frequently than the white or blue steel alternatives, but that it is also less likely to chip. We recommend SK5 steel for use on deba knives which are by nature used to cut directly against, along and between bones and are therefore subject to more abuse than most knife shapes.
Please note, this is a Left Handed Deba. If this is your first carbon (not stainless) steel knife we recommend that you read about the Care and Maintenance of Carbon Steel Knives.

Minonokuni Ume 165mm Deba
Minonokuni Ume 165mm Deba: The Authoritative Workhorse for Fish Butchery The quintessential tool for serious fish preparation, the Minonokuni Ume 165mm Deba is a classic workhouse. This hand-forged blade has the length and heft needed to process larger fish and the versatility to carefully dress smaller catches. The soul of a Deba lies in its dual nature: unyielding power and surgical finesse. This knife features a thick spine and a substantial weight that provide leverage to drive cleanly through tough fish heads, collars, and dense bones without hesitation. This raw power seamlessly transitions to a screamingly sharp, single-bevel edge. This traditional grind allows you to glide the blade flat against the fish's skeleton, separating pristine fillets with breathtaking precision and minimal waste. At 165mm (6.5"), this blade hits the "sweet spot" of professional performance. It provides the increased heft and longer cutting edge needed to confidently break down medium-to-large fish like cod, yellowtail, or salmon. Yet, it retains the balance and control required for all-around tasks, making it the one Deba that can truly do it all. It is the perfect upgrade for the dedicated home cook and an indispensable staple for the professional chef. Part of the "Ume" (梅) or "Plum Blossom" series, this knife represents resilience and refined strength. Where the plum blossom signals the promise of spring, this Deba signals the confident stride of a practitioner dedicated to mastering their craft. Learn More -
Mac Original 7.7 in. (195mm) Chef / Utility Knife
Surgical Precision Meets Everyday Durability in the MAC Original UK-80 Experience the 60 HRC edge retention and razor-thin 1.85mm spine of Japan’s most versatile 195mm utility-chef hybrid. When you first pick up the MAC Original 7.7" (195mm) Chef Utility Knife, the immediate sensation is one of startling lightness and clinical balance. Unlike heavy Western blades that rely on mass to force a cut, the UK-80 glides through protein and fiber with minimal downward pressure. The 1.85mm spine thickness allows for a friction-free entry into dense root vegetables or delicate proteins, preventing the 'wedging' effect common in thicker blades. Forged from AUS8 high-carbon stainless steel and hardened to a 60 Rockwell (HRC) rating, this knife maintains a biting edge far longer than standard kitchen tools. The 50/50 bevel provides a familiar feel for both left and right-handed users, while the up-swept Pakkawood handle ensures your knuckles clear the cutting board during rapid mincing. This isn't just a tool; it's a tactile extension of your hand. The rounded safety tip is a specific design choice for high-volume environments, reducing the risk of puncture wounds during frantic prep sessions, while the iconic blade hole serves as a practical solution for sanitary hanging in commercial racks. Whether you are performing precision brunoise on shallots or breaking down mid-sized poultry, the MAC UK-80 responds with feedback that only a thin-blade Japanese knife can provide. The interaction between the high-carbon steel and the whetstone during maintenance is equally satisfying, taking a screamingly sharp edge with minimal effort compared to softer alloys.
