How do you use this Deba Knife Japan Tojiro Carbon Steel
The considerable weight of the Deba knife is desirable because the sturdy heel portion of the Deba knife can be used with care to slice or chop the bones of small and medium sized fish and poultry. Debas are often used to cut fish heads in half and with the right techniques can be safely used to remove and split open the legs and pincers of crabs. However, the Deba knife is not recommended for chopping through large bones, and as with all knives care should be taken to ensure that the edge of the blade is not exposed to lateral forces (perpendicular to the main axis, or length, of the blade), as this may lead to chipping or cracking.
The Deba's back is very tapered lengthwise, which also makes it possible to have a point that is thin and sensitive enough to feel whether it is touching the bones or not. This is an ideal feature for a knife used for filleting. The Deba's tapered blade and sturdy handle create a balance point centered at the heel of the blade, and this results in the hefty knife feeling much more nimble than one would expect. The combination of good overall balance and thin blade tip also results in a knife that is surprisingly good for delicate work.
