I work in a sushi bar, and break down fish once a week. My workload is usually two 8 pound fluke/hirame (rarely, they're usually half that size,) five 15-20 pound salmon, and a 10 pound Hamachi/yellowtail or 2.
I want to replace an aus-8 Suisin sujihiki, as soon as it even comes near a salmon bone it's done and I have to hone it. Trying to sukibiki those huge fluke even seemed to dull it. I need something sharp and durable, so that if I graze a salmon belly bone while filleting it will keep going, and also sukibiki/skin the fluke and yellowtail without honing during the shift.
I don't care if it's a yanagi or sujihiki or prison shank made out of a toothbrush. Please recommend a good steel/plastic/knife type combo to do this. :lol2:
Max is $300 usd shipped, I can go to 400, but I'm not ballin' so don't get crazy
240-270mm
