Our Deba is made with traditional construction of knives, single bevel (KATAHA). Since the bevel is only created on the front side of the blade towards the edge of the concave back, single bevel knives have a tendency to slide slightly to the left (for right hand user) when the knives is in cutting motion. This particular piece is called Awase which is forged welding Hagane (high carbon steel )onto a Jigane (soft steel). The knife is polished and installed with an ebony and white buffalo horn handle.
