Best Boning Knife
on June 1, 2020
Posted by: love2cook
This knife does a great job removing small bones from chicken and beef and fish. It's also greaet when removing citrus peels and sectioning fruit for salads. So comfortable to use and am able to get a grip that allows for precise cuts when using it. Blade is flexible and lets you easily maneuver around delicate pieces fish to make a nice filet. Great to use when trimming excess fat and gristle from meat and chicken.
This is the best boning knife I’ve ever used. The curved bolster gives you the ultimate control over the blade, which is very important when removing bones from proteins. The blade has just enough flexibility to work around different cuts of meat to allow you to get the exact cut you’re looking for.
Never owned boning knife before this one...lucky I picked the best one first. The flexibility makes it ultra-useful and...is made from the age-old Zwilling GSS!
I can't believe how flexible this knife is! I am able to take the skin off of a tomato with this knife without worrying that I will take off a lot if the flesh. I love the curved bolster on the knife that makes it extra comfortable and the handle makes it easy to maneuver the knife.
There is no doubt that the Pro line is my absolute favorite, but in addition, I love this specific knife. I can easily get in between the chicken and the skin, slice the skin off of oranges, and many other finite cuts. It's flexible and sharp enough to make these cuts with ease. I would not recommend a better boning knife.
The flex on this boning knife makes it tieh easiest knife to use for a chicken. It moves so smoothly around the edges and doesn't catch on the surface of the bones, just skims right past and edges or angles on the bone. I always had my butcher do most of the work, as my boning skills were sub par, but with this knife I a have no issue buying a whole roaster and de-boning it myself, in fact it's kinda ZEN! Try it!!
This is one the best boning knives. I like the flex, just enough to get me around a chicken breast, but sturdy enough to work around beef bones. The sharp blade slips under siverskin easily. The newly designed angled bolster is easy to grip, keeping the thumb and forefinger in the correct position for maximum control. And it comes with the quality of the Pro line. The steel will hold its edge and knife will last a lifetime.
I got this knife about a year ago and it quickly became one of my favorites. The blade is razor sharp and flexible so it glides evenly around the edges of chicken breast or between the skin and meat of fish. Use it to peel fruits or vegetables. The Pro series curved forged bolster is always a favorite of mine for a comfortable grip.
