TOJIRO Aogami Damascus Deba 165mm

Traditional Hand-Forged Fish Cleaver • Single Bevel • Made in Japan

This TOJIRO Aogami Damascus Deba 165mm knife is crafted using Aogami Steel, one of the most highly regarded steels in Japanese knife-making, known for its extraordinary sharpness and edge retention.

Forged with traditional Japanese sword-making techniques, the Aogami core is clad with layers of softer iron, folded and hammered repeatedly to create a Damascus-style blade that is both strong and visually stunning. The result is a knife with an exceptional cutting edge and long-lasting durability.

The handle is crafted from Japanese Magnolia wood (Hinoki)—lightweight, water-resistant, and smooth to the touch—paired with a buffalo horn collar for a secure and elegant finish.
