Khay Dee Deba
Khay Dee Deba
£99.95
An Oriental Utility knife with double bevels and a beautiful rock chop curve.
Perfect for smaller food prep and chopping fresh herbs.
A style of knife that was traditionally used for filleting fish in Japan, this little I.O.Shen Khay Dee Deba Knife has a very deep blade sharpened on both sides to suit Western chefs. Great for cooks who like to use an Oriental-style utility knife, the deep heel of the blade means that it even suits larger hands.
I.O. Shen knives offer a unique blend of Japanese and Western sensibilities, setting them apart from the traditional Japanese knife. Sure, their Triplex Steel Technology is a marvel, but the design elevates them to another level.
A Western Touch:
Most Japanese knives are known for their lightweight build and handles crafted from metal, bamboo, or wood. I.O. Shen takes a different approach, incorporating a distinctly Western influence. Their handles boast a satisfying weight, akin to a classic German knife, perfectly complementing the razor-sharp, 15° angled Japanese steel blade.
Beauty Meets Balance:
The artistry doesn’t stop at functionality. I.O. Shen handles feature the captivating Tai Tang pattern, adding a touch of elegance to your culinary arsenal. No wonder renowned Chef Felice Tocchini describes using these knives as “…like working with a piece of art.”
A Modern Classic:
Launched in 2004, I.O. Shen Mastergrade knives have become a favourite among professional chefs and home cooks alike. Their combination of innovative technology, superior craftsmanship, and stunning design makes them a true standout in the world of cutlery.

I buy lots of Chef knives but this is my first from Ioshen. I have to say that the service was excellent. Queries were answered promptly, service was excellent and delivery was prompt. Beautifully wrapped if you wanted a present for someone. I wanted a small Deba and this perfect. Well made, solid, nicely weighted and really sharp straight from the get go. Would I buy again … Absolutely.

Fantastic as a utility knife. Perfect balance, perfect weight. I think this might be my new favourite prep knife.
Thanks for taking so much trouble with the engraving! I think that next time I might limit it to the postcode and house number. Perfect for tracing.
