Satake Noushu Masamune Deba Japanese Kitchen Knife 16 cm – Japanese Quality in Your Kitchen
The Satake Noushu Masamune Deba kitchen knife is a traditional Japanese knife with a robust, single-bevel blade, ideal for processing and precisely filleting fish while preserving the meat's structure. In Japan, it's also often used for butchering poultry. However, it's important to note that this isn't a classic cleaver, so avoid forceful chopping motions. For cutting bones, apply only gentle pressure to the back of the knife while making a quick, precise cut. The sharp tip and short, 16 cm blade provide excellent control, which is particularly advantageous for working in tight spaces.
The heart of the knife is the AUS-8A stainless steel blade. This Japanese quality steel provides excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance, while being easy to sharpen and maintain. The thickness and strength of the AUS-8A steel make the Deba knife suitable for robust tasks, all while maintaining precision. Complementing the blade, the handle is crafted from premium walnut wood. The walnut handle not only enhances the knife's value with its beautiful grain and elegant appearance but also provides an excellent grip, is comfortable in the hand, and is extremely durable.
The name "deba" (出刃) knife originates from the Japanese phrase "to cut outwards," referring to its specialized use. Deba knives have ancient roots, serving as essential tools in Japanese culinary arts for centuries. Their blades are typically made from thick and strong steel, and their tapered shape allows for precise cuts and easy separation of bones from meat. A characteristic feature of Deba knives is their single-bevel sharpening, which provides outstanding control during cutting. The Satake Noushu Masamune Deba knife is a masterpiece of traditional Japanese knife-making, a perfect blend of robustness and precision, an ideal choice for both professional and home chefs.
