A Yo Deba is a thick double bevel knife with a chef's knife shape, but designed for tougher tasks such as breaking down fish. They also excel and cutting through poultry and other butchery tasks, but feel more like a wedge when cutting vegetables.
Sakai Kikumori’s Nihonko series have a thin and lightweight carbon mono-steel blade and a comfortable western style handle. Ease of sharpening and good edge life make these knives an excellent all-around value.
