Know before you buy
The flexibility allows the blade to bend slightly, making it easier to follow the contours of bones and joints. This helps you remove meat cleanly and minimize waste compared to a rigid blade.
FIBROX is a texturized nylon material designed to provide a non-slip grip, even when your hands are wet or greasy. It is a standard in professional kitchens for its durability and safety.
This knife is best suited for delicate tasks like deboning poultry, fish, or trimming smaller cuts of meat. Because it is a stamped, flexible blade, it is not intended for hacking through thick bones or frozen items.
While the steel is corrosion-resistant, it is best to hand wash and dry the knife immediately after use to maintain the edge. Regular honing with a steel will help keep the blade sharp for daily prep work.
No, this is sold as an individual knife and does not include a sheath or storage block. We recommend using a blade guard or a dedicated knife roll to protect the edge when it is not in use.
