6" Boning Knife - Pin Series (X020)

Reach for this when you're breaking down a whole chicken or trimming a fish fillet. A chef knife is too wide to navigate around a joint and too stiff to follow the contour of a rib cage. The 6-inch boning knife's narrow, flexible-feeling blade gets into the tight spaces -- around the thigh socket, along the spine of a fish, down the silver membrane of a rack of lamb -- without tearing the meat you're trying to keep intact.

Narrow Enough to Follow the Bone

The blade geometry is the whole point of a boning knife. The tip is sharp enough to pierce directly into a joint without needing to hack at it, and the narrow profile lets you angle and rotate the blade while you're cutting rather than committing to a single straight line. The 10Cr15CoMoV core is vacuum heat-treated to 60±2 HRC, so the edge stays sharp through a whole bird or a side of salmon without going dull on the connective tissue and membrane that blunts softer steels fast.

Olive Wood Handle, Control in a Wet Environment

Boning work happens with wet hands on wet meat. Natural olive wood is dense and close-grained, which means it doesn't get slippery the way varnished handles can when the grip gets damp. The full-tang construction keeps the knife from feeling front-heavy when you're working at an angle, and the riveted build stays tight with the regular hand-washing that butchery work demands.
