Description

Ginsanko blends traditional methods of knife making with modern metallurgy. Ginsanko is a breakthrough in the incorporation of high carbon steel and stain resistant metallic elements. With a hardness on the Rockwell scale of 62-63, they offer a rare combination of traditional Japanese high carbon knives with stainless steel properties. Hongasumi translates as "true mist" and refers to the beautiful mist like patterns on the blade that are formed when Ginsanko (HRC 62-63) is forged with iron. Ginsanko steel is forged by our master artisans to create traditional Japanese knives of the highest quality that can provide peace of mind in high paced environments.
Our Yoshihiro Mizu Yaki Hongasumi Ginsanko knives are complimented with a traditional Japanese style handcrafted Shitan Rose wood handle affixed with double bolster, and a protective wooden sheath called a "Saya" is included, which protects the knife and adds to its appearance when not in use. The Deba knife is a heavy knife that was made to filet and butcher whole fish. The heft of the Deba knife allows it to cut through the heads and bones of a fish, and its smaller pointed tip filets the flesh from the bones. The Deba knife can used be for chicken and meat but is not recommended for cutting through large bones. The Deba knife is one of the most essential of traditional Japanese knives and is a powerful component in the repertoire of many chefs. Even the simplest of tasks are elevated with a handcrafted knife that is as beautiful as it is functional. Available in 6"(150mm), 6.5"(165mm), 7"(180mm), 7.7"(195mm), and 8.25"(210mm) with a limited lifetime warranty.
