But he did this awesome knife restoration while sitting his ass on the couch!

When working on a Japanese style knife with a flat side and a beveled side, the thing to keep in mind is that there really isn't a flat side. The urasuki & uraoshi combine to make the blade cut more effectively. The urasuki is a slight concavity in the "flat" side of the blade that reduces friction and helps keep food slices from sticking to the knife.

The concavity on the "flat" side also aids in sharpening.

Thank you for showing the process with the marker!

Awesome. My first restoration took more than 6 months. Every square cm I got right just made the rest look even worse. It takes on a life of its own. Then the sharpening - something else that can take a lifetime to master. Restoring a Yanagi-ba now; two months in, fingers raw. I thank the universe for every knife that is saved. Thank you for sharing!

Unbelievable! I just clicked on youtube after spending an hour on my Deba and this is recommended. I feels. My knife was used as a garden trowel for years, handle full of crap, tip of the blade snapped and edge saw toothed. It's taken me 4 years to get it looking and working like a Deba again with sand paper and stones. I did not use power tools to avoid heat. Yeah, the steel is really hard, but beautiful. Any hoo, 8000 grit for the win and cool video, thank you.

From this little line cook's perspective, I would say a Deba is basically a multi-use butcher's knife. Imagine a meat cleaver shaped like a kitchen knife. They're sturdy and built with that little stout groove on them to handle thick fish bones. They all taper off at the tip, however, so you can use them for small fish as well.

This is how most people get started knife making. Rehandling an old knife or making a handle for a blade they bought from a knife making supply company like Jantz or USA knife. Generally, you don't shape the handle until after you have it glued to the tang. If you make the handle oversized, you don't run into the problem of the hole being off center.

Very nice job. Beautiful handle!!

As to the restoration, its BEAUTIFUL. Such a great job on that, i loved the look of the handle at the end. Amazing what a little patience and work can achieve. Congratulations on such a nice knife.

If you just polished the backside, it's a job well done. In case you completely flattened the concave back, then you took the last bit of life that knife had. The concave backside is crucial for Japanese one sided knives. Awesome rhyme btw.

It is supposed to be concave on the back side. It is a single bevel fish knife. It is very important for this type of knife.
