Morihei Hisamoto | 195mm Ai Deba Knife (Mirror Ginsan)
$519
The Ai Deba is lighter and has a smaller profile than other Deba knives with a thinner blade.
It's rare to see single bevels in our favourite stainless steel (ginsan), let alone with this level of finish anywhere near this price.

Japanese Kitchen Knife | Deba & Funayuki (Fish Knife)
The Deba and Funayuki are traditional Japanese kitchen knives which are used by chefs for fish, or as utility knives on fishing boats.
Most Deba and Funayuki knives have a single bevel grind, with a thicker, heavier and shorter overall build. Although they are generally a specialist fish knife, some modern chefs do use these knives for other tasks such as breaking down meat and poultry. When used with the right ingredients, it can be an awakening experience.
