Know before you buy
The semi-flexible blade allows the knife to follow the natural contours of bones and joints more closely than a rigid blade. This flexibility helps you remove meat cleanly with minimal waste, making it ideal for poultry, fish, and smaller cuts of meat.
Yes, the Fibrox handle is designed with a texturized, non-slip grip that remains secure even when wet. Its ergonomic shape is engineered to reduce hand fatigue during repetitive tasks, which is why it is a standard choice in professional kitchens.
While the materials are durable, we recommend hand washing this knife. Dishwashers can expose the blade to harsh detergents and high heat that may dull the edge prematurely or damage the handle finish.
High carbon stainless steel is harder than standard stainless, which allows the blade to hold a sharper edge for a longer period. It offers the perfect balance of edge retention and corrosion resistance, ensuring the knife remains reliable through heavy use.
No, this knife is designed for precision boning and trimming, not for hacking through bone. Using it on dense bones or frozen foods can damage the flexible blade; for those tasks, you should use a dedicated heavy-duty cleaver.
