Tsubaya 165mm Funayuki Carbon Steel (Shiro2?) Ho Horn
Vintage 165mm funayuki fish butchery knife made for the famous Tsubaya shop in Tokyo's Kappabashi street.
This is a light deba essentially, not a deba in that the tang has a machi grind (two notches at the neck when tang goes into handle. Having a machi the blade is measured from the machi rather than from the chin, the cutting edge is 150mm making this a knife great for smaller fish.
Knife is in good shape, it had been sharpened a little too much on the ura side so we ground that in on a kaiten mizu toishi wheel keeping the proper concave hollow grind.
