“Katsura Muki in 2025?” Pro Sushi Chef’s cinéma vérité




Is Katsura Muki really meaningful in the real life? Or, is it equivalent of pulling a wheelie on a street bike, spinning Colt SAA while putting it back into a holster?
If it has some meaning, what is the point? How to practice?

Deba=Atoma+Shapton



240mm Deba : 22 oz. (620g) ≒ Colt detective Special 2-inch barrel, fully loaded
Part 1 tells you why you need to be (a sort of) sculptor ( and a rebel.)

Deba=Atoma+Shapton, part2



Big surprise, I actually managed to upload part2 right after the part1 !
This video shows how & why I use Atoma#1200 after #400, then how I put secondary bevel (for chopping) on the rear 1/3 of the blade, and micro bevel on front 2/3 of the blade.
Usual disclaimer, this is NOT a tutorial, this is NOT knife / knife sharpening channel !

“Why you don’t sharpen Ura Oshi?” Viewer asked me …



The pitfalls of trying to learn something, from YouTube videos.
Someone who watched my video said, “Why you sharpen only on the right side?”
Despite the fact that the videos clearly show how I sharpen the left side.
What happened?
Why he couldn’t see it?

Fillet 3 Snappers in 14 min! A viewer commented my deba is dull...



Let me know in the comment section, does this deba seem to be dull, in need of sharpening?
Also, I'm waiting some internet hero to chime in, saying  his master, friend, neighbor, brother in low, can do this with Yanagiba,  3 snappers under 30-second...
