Trade in deba in great condition without original packaging. This carbon steel deba has been used an cared for well in a professional setting. It's original kurouchi finish has been worn away and the kireba bevel has been worked appropriately over it's lifetime, which is no where close to ending. 

Wakui has stopped making debas so it's real hard to find anymore out there, especially in Aogami 2. This knife was made between 2014-2016.

This is a carbon steel knife. Carbon steel is expected to develop a dark patina with use. It needs to be hand washed and dried immediately after use. Do not air dry. Do not put it in the dishwasher. Long exposure to moisture and debris will result in rust. Any rust development should be removed with a light abrasive.

We recommend hand sharpening on whetstones. We have found that most Japanese knives perform best at a finer finish starting around 4000. Avoid pull through sharpeners and non-water cooled mechanized sharpening. Ceramic honing rods are preferred.
