Blade Hardness
HRC (Rockwell Hardness) measures how hard the blade's steel is. Kitchen knife steel typically falls in the high-50s to mid-60s on this scale. Harder steel is built to hold a fine edge over long use, while softer steel favors flexibility and easy resharpening. The right HRC depends on the steel and design, not a single higher-is-better number.
Stain Resistant
This steel is not stain resistant. High-carbon steel can rust or develop a patina if not kept dry and cared for, in exchange for the sharper edge it holds.
Saya Cover
This knife comes with its saya cover included at no additional cost, shaped to its exact blade for the same custom fit customers pay extra for on other knives.

Product Details
Offered in 8.25" (210mm), 9.5" (240mm) and 10.5" (270mm), this Kasumi Mioroshi Deba lets one knife handle both breaking down fish and taking off fillets. The single-bevel White Steel #2 blade (62 HRC) is forged with soft iron, and it is fitted with a traditional D-shaped magnolia handle and water buffalo horn bolster. Includes a magnolia saya cover.
The Yoshihiro Kasumi knives are unparalleled in craftsmanship and performance. Each knife is complemented by a traditional Japanese style handcrafted Magnolia wood (D-Shaped) handle, affixed with a Water Buffalo horn bolster, ensuring both comfort and aesthetic appeal. The knife comes with a protective wooden sheath called a Saya, which not only protects the blade but also adds to its elegant appearance when not in use.
The Mioroshi knife is a longer, sleeker version of the Deba knife, designed for versatility and power. With enough heft to filet whole fish and cut through cartilage and bones, it also features a longer blade, making it ideal for general-purpose tasks. Though it excels at working with fish, the Mioroshi knife can also be used for chicken and meat, though it is not suitable for cutting through large bones. With its exceptional craftsmanship, this handcrafted knife elevates even the simplest tasks, combining beauty and functionality in a single, powerful tool.
