Good product but long wait time for delivery to US. Because of wrenches thrown into trade wheels by Trump administration, my order was held in custom clearance stage for weeks. Akazuki was awesome. They replied my message and the item was well packaged. Top notch Japanese item and customer service.
Thank you

Expert's Detail:
A "Deba" is the cornerstone of Japanese seafood preparation. Unlike standard chef knives, the weight and thickness of this Kai blade allow you to apply pressure without risking edge damage. The reinforced laminated wood handle is designed to resist water absorption and provide a secure, comfortable grip even during intensive kitchen work. To maintain the professional-grade sharpness, we recommend regular honing on a whetstone.
