Kai Sekimagoroku Shoso Deba knife 18cm

The Kai Sekimagoroku Shoso Japanese knife is a professional Deba-style tool, ideal for portioning and filleting fish. Its robust, single-bevel blade easily handles bones and tough skin. The knife is crafted from a single piece of steel, which contributes to its durability and hygienic maintenance. The all-metal handle has an ergonomic shape and a special diamond pattern that ensures a firm and secure grip, even with wet hands. The matte finish gives the knife an elegant look.

Forged blade with a professional grind

The core of the knife is a robust, forged blade made of 5CR15MoV stainless steel, which achieves an optimal hardness of 56 (±1) HRC. This ensures the blade holds its edge for a long time while also being easy to sharpen. A special feature of Deba knives is the single-sided grind – in this case, it's convex for a stable cutting edge. This geometry allows for precise and clean cuts when portioning fish, including separating meat from bones. The matte finish of the blade also reduces food sticking to it.

Ergonomic handle for a secure grip

The knife's handle is made of 18-8 stainless steel and forms a single, seamless unit with the blade. This all-metal construction is not only durable but also highly hygienic, as it eliminates crevices where dirt could accumulate. The symmetrical oval profile fits comfortably in the hand for both right- and left-handed users. For maximum safety during use, the handle features a fine diamond pattern that prevents fingers from slipping, even when the handle is wet or greasy.
