[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The 5-1/2 boning knife fits perfectly in your hand for total control. It’s blade is stiff yet flexible to get the job done. It holds its edge for a very long time.
I am very happy with the results from this boning knife. The sturdy sharp forged German steel blades are strong sharp and flexible. They get right in close to the bone and leaves very little meat behind. It cuts down on waste and puts more value in my pocket from purchasing large cuts of meat. The four star handle is very comfortable and the texture of the material has a good grip that gives me confidence and safety while butchering.
This knife is perfect for getting between meat and a bone. I also like to use it for making pockets in pork chops for stuffing. The blade is made from German Special Formula Steel, also forged from one piece of steel so durable for a lifetime. It is razor sharp and can get through any meat. The handle is comfortable and lightweight, a nice option compared to other heavy handle knives.
This is so much more than just a boning knife! I love using this to take the skin off of tomatoes and all kinds of melons because it can curve to the sides of the fruit. The handle is super comfortable and I am able to grip it very well.
Zwilling's age-old, proven formula in a flexible boning/fillet knife. forged German stainless, 3/4 tang makes a bit lighter (which is good for this one) and larger handle for firm grip.
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!!
