DEBA

The deba knife is a type of Japanese kitchen knife primarily used for fish processing. The term "deba" literally means "to cut," which reflects its main function: dividing, cutting, and filleting fish.
This knife is characterized by a sturdy and thick blade, with a tip slightly angled upwards, allowing for powerful and precise cuts through the flesh and bones of fish. The back of the blade can be used to break bones or to remove tougher skin.
The deba knife is particularly suitable for working with whole fish, such as gutting and cutting larger fish like tuna or salmon. It is also useful for removing fish heads and tails, as well as for precisely cutting fish fillets.
