Definition of "Hobby":
Achieving the least revenue, with the greatest possible effort.
A great example of craftsmanship, patience and also respect for the beauty and sharpness that comes out from under the rust!

For those who don't know, this is a right-handed knife for fish filleting, called a deba. They are usually made of carbon steel because that can be made sharper, but prone to rust, of course, as seen in this video. Left-handed deba are widely available in Japan, but I am not sure about overseas. If you are left-handed, be sure to get the correct-handed deba ! It is impossible to use a right-handed deb with the left hand, and vice-versa, as it will dig into the fish bones and generally make a big mess.

Excellent job sir. You deserve a thousand thumbs up! 👍👍👍👍

Looks like a new knife, but I'd personally try to preserve the maker's mark as much as possible. Any good knife deserves this much.

This is by far one of the best restaurations I've seen. Too many people only care about the mirror finish but still leave the knife pitted, they don't care about the flatness of the edges or the transitions between them. They attack it with power tools like Philistines without understanding the craft involved or the longevity and usability of the work piece, while you have an obvious love for these things.

WOW...great ideas 💡 ✨!!! I will definitely use some of these ideas. THANKS 😊

I have restored many, many deba knives. Yours is more beautiful by far than any of mine.

So nice to see a not fake restoration vid! good job!

[jdrew]

This was a pleasure to watch. A fine piece of metal brought back to an elegant finish. I would have loved to have seen some sushi prepared. That would have been satisfying

That is truly beautiful work. A knife of this quality deserves the time and effort to restore. You're the greatest.
