Satake Katsu 16cm Deba Knife

The Satake Deba knife is a traditional Japanese-style knife characterized by a thick and heavy blade. The use of such a blade allows the knife to effortlessly handle bones and tough skin. Additionally, the knife can be used for poultry portioning, but it is not recommended for chopping bones, as this may damage the blade, which is somewhat delicate in its own way. The knife is lightweight and perfectly balanced, which you will undoubtedly appreciate when peeling vegetables and fruits. The blade of the knife retains its sharpness for a long time. It's worth noting that the knife handle is designed to offer the user maximum comfort during work. The knife has a handle made of pakka wood.
