This particular deba has the traditional kurouchi finish (also known as a blacksmith finish which helps protect the steel) on one side

A dual sided stone to help you get the most from your sharpening - the 1000 side is used to do the bulk of the sharpening while the smoother 6000 grit is for finishing and includes an angle guide to help ensure you always hit the right angle for sharpening your knives

there is a lot more belly on the knife than the others mainly towards the front with a slightly more pronounced point
