About the knife type: Deba (Japanese filleting knife)
A deba is a single-bevel knife used mainly for cutting and filleting fish. A deba is much thicker and heavier than an ordinary kitchen knife or filleting knife, which lets it cut through small fish bones. It has a higher sharpening angle than other single-bevel knives such as the yanagiba.
When sharpening a deba, sharpen at a higher angle (about 60 degrees) on one side and a zero angle on the flat side.
About the steel: Karbonstål
Care and maintenance
Wash by hand in warm water, and dry it straight away.
Never the dishwasher. Use a cutting board of wood or plastic, not glass or stone.
