Mercer Cutlery Asian Knives Collection - 4" Deba Knife

For those that love the precise angles, razor sharpness, and traditional design of Asian knives, Mercer Cutlery offers excellence and performance at an affordable price. The Deba knife has very wide, thick, and pointed blade profile that is similar to the Western chef's or cook's knife. This type of Asian knife is used like a cleaver to cut off tails and heads of fish, chop apart poultry, and other equally heavy tasks. The Deba knife will also make short work of cutting meats and hard vegetables like sweet potatoes or turnips. Use it to cut through thick skins of winter squashes for roasting halves. The Deba knife can also be used for general chopping chores, like those a utility knife would perform. This Deba knife from the Mercer Asian Knives Collection will delight you with its sharpness and quality of manufacture. And you will have plenty of money left to go out and treat yourself to some special foods to cook or even another Asian knife!
