Hello,
I'm looking to buy either a deba or honesuki to complete my ss takeda knife set. Although I have read that the deba is a little more versatile because you can bone fish and poultry, my heart is still set on the honesuki. I think it is a nice compromise because the spine on it is thick like a deba and even has a little belly (more than most honesukis anyways), yet has a smaller profile for getting into tight places.What limits does the honesuki have when it comes to boning fish? Which knife would you rather have in your kit?
fyi- i already have the ss takeda:
165mm nakiri
240mm yanagiba
90mm paring/small petty
Thank you all in adavance,
Mitch
