About Deba Knife
The deba is a heavy knife for gutting and filleting fish and removing the scales of smaller fish. The sharpness and weight of its durable thick blade lets you glide the knife along fish bones to separate the fillets, as well as cut through fish heads, fish ribs, and even poultry. The deba is also used by Japanese chefs to chop fish and shrimp into a paste. Aoki Hamono uses the term "ai-deba" interchangeably with "deba" but they are the same product.
