Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I've used this exquisite boning knife for many years, and used it heavily- cutting apart and boning out very many goat carcasses, chickens, cutting up pieces of meat, etc. etc.Since I use it to cut apart large joints I am often pushing it against the bone but in spite of the abuse it keeps its edge like nothing else. I've not had any knife that comes close to this one in performance for these jobs.
It IS rugged. Sharp. The point is enough to poke through membranes.The curve near the tip ideal for boning.The concave curve near the base of the blade helpful when I want extra leverage in getting through a joint, etc.The balance and shape of the handle unbelievably suberb.
If I sound passionate about this knife, I am!A great knife is a lovely thing to someone who uses it regularly and values an excellent tool.All you need to do is pick up one of these Four Star pieces (their 10" chef knife is my other favorite) and you'll know what I mean.It fits in your hand as if it had been molded there.And it still feels that good after an hour of pretty steady use.On my big boning jobs I use a lot of pressure in a variety of positions and tend to work fast and hard but this knife goes a long way toward making it easy.It feels like part of my hand and even when my grip gets tired and greasy I am secure in the excellent design and never slip.The handle curves are deep and comfortable at either end.
The blade itself is, of course, perfection.Very strong and durable with an ideal balance between flexibility and rigidity.It bends when needed but has plenty of backbone too- something I find very important as it provides great control and ease of use.
Highly recommended without reservation!
