Sakai Shigemitsu Wooden Handle Deba Knife 150mm - Type: Deba Knife - Handle Material: Wood - Blade Length: 150mm - Engraving: Sakai Shigemitsu This item was made in Sakai, the home of cutlery. It is a high-quality knife, and the finish, such as the engraved characters, is superb. I received it from a retired chef. Although it is unused, there is some rust, so please check the images. The blade steel is not stainless steel, but rather Japanese steel (carbon steel), which is no longer produced and will not be produced in the future.
