The Yoshihiro Hongasumi Blue Steel Deba Filet Japanese Knife is expertly forged from High Carbon Blue Steel #2 with a HRC of 63-64, offering superior edge retention and the ability to take a finer edge compared to Kasumi Deba knives made from White Steel #2. This makes it an excellent choice for intermediate-level chefs. It comes ready to use out of the box and includes a Magnolia wood sheath, knife oil, and a rust eraser for ongoing maintenance. Handcrafted in Japan, this knife is a unique, high-quality piece—not mass-produced.

Designed for carving and filleting fish, as well as some meats, the Yoshihiro Hongasumi Blue Steel Deba Knife features a heavy, single-edged blade that easily cuts through fish flesh and meat. The Hongasumi technique, which layers softer steel over a hard steel core, results in a higher-quality kasumi knife. The Blue Steel #2 core offers exceptional sharpness and edge retention, while the surrounding iron adds the durability needed for regular use.

Crafted using traditional Japanese techniques, the Yoshihiro Hongasumi Blue Steel Deba Knife features a flat ground front (shinogi) and a concave ground back (urasuki) with a flat rim (uraoshi). This traditional construction enhances sharpness and cutting performance. The octagonal handle is made from magnolia wood and water buffalo horn, providing comfort and control during use. The blade also showcases the mist-like pattern characteristic of the forging process, adding beauty to the knife's functional design.

For proper care, sharpening and honing should be done with Japanese water stones. Hand wash and dry immediately after use, especially when working with acidic ingredients, to maintain the blade. This knife is intended for use on boneless fish flesh and should not be used on bones.

What time is it? Time to buy this watch!
Color: Blue
This is a great watch at an unbelievable price. You get quality materials, durable construction, reliability and style, all for a great price. I wear this watch more than my others, and I have quite a few, but this one has that "it" factor. I get a lot of compliments on it and love the aesthetic. It keeps time well and has a pretty long battery life. The fit is also great too since it very adjustable.

Good value
Color: Black
Surprisingly good watch at this price. Compatible with common 20mm NATO straps. Have worn mine extensively despite owning more expensive field watches. Got the black model and switched to a Bond NATO strap. Good legibility, light but not cheap feeling. Lots of great affordable field watches out there from Timex, Militado, Addiesdive, etc, but at the sub $20 price I think this is one of the best values.

Semi-tough and inexpensive
Color: Blue
I purchased this watch because I needed one that I could put into harms way without hesitation; I also needed it to survive. Inexpensive and semi-tough. A tall order. So far so good! Bonus points for appearance. Color coordination and it looks pretty good, lightweight and adjustable for the cost of three gallons of gasoline!

Getting more for the price point!
Color: Green
The MDC 12/24 Hour Military Wrist Watch, with Date and Day ostensibly is an homage to the old military issue watches of the WWII era. At this price point my expectations for look, style, performance, durability were not very high. I was pleasantly surprised! The watch comes in a small black slender box within a sleeve, protected by felt cushion cut out in the shape of the watch. Immediately, what I term a "utilitarian elegance" jumped out at me. Very handsome and durable look that hints of delicate handling but is hefty and rugged. It is a minimalist watch with simple but lasting durability and precision. I've worn the watch for over a week, and though this is not a great deal of time nor is this a comprehensive review, I've so far come away with the impression that with the MDC you are getting more than you paid for. Keeps great time and if you should ding it or scratch it, you wont feel guilty considering the price point. In fact, I am so impressed with this time piece that I bought a total of three (one in each color offered).
