Minonokuni Take 135mm (5.3 in.) Ko-Deba


The Deba (fat knife) is primarily used for breaking down whole fish and poultry. This smaller knife commonly referred to as a Ko-Deba is a smaller more lightweight Deba, not so great for cleaving fish heads, use this Deba for filleting. The way the Deba tapers from a thick spine, near the handle, to a thin tip allows the user to often feel the tip of the knife touching the bones making tics at each bone as the knife glides through the fish.
