Old School Deba

Doug · May 1, 2017

I saw this old Deba with a concave Hira. I heard this was somewhat common along time ago. First time I've seen this though. Thought it was pretty cool looking.

Some makers still make this Geometry on request.

Is it clad or honyaki? Asymmetrical steel bends or warps during the quench. This way its a bit more symmetric.

Thank you for posting.

yeah... you can still find ones like that. In fact, many are like that, just maybe a bit less extreme.

Boy, you're up late Jon. By the way, enjoyed the visit in February. Thanks for the hospitality. Enjoying the stones and knife.
