Strange knife

[Brock Cutlery]

Was browsing some fish videos and came across this odd ball knife. Interesting.

Looks like a variation of the Alaskan ULU I just learned about this type of knife since I bought another beautiful variation from John O'Neil earlier today.

I have seen those a few times "Chinese seafood place near my school." I actaully got asked to sharpen one but i didnt have my tools. They call them a crescent cleaver or a half moon axe

I have heard it called a "fish hatchet" and also a marui deba. It is basically a thick and heavy ulu style deba for breaking down large fish.
