Yo-Deba (Fish Knife)

The Yo-Deba literally means “Western Deba” and these knives have a double-bevel edge, making it ideal for cutting through lobster and crab shells. Like the Deba, which is the Japanese style fish knife used for butchering fish, the Yo-Deba also has a thick blade and considerable weight, which makes it ideal for cutting through fish bones and filleting large fish.
