Victorinox Fibrox Pro 5-inch Straight Semi-Flexible Boning Knife
A semi-flexible blade sits between the rigid control of a stiff boning knife and the bend of a flexible one. This 5-inch Victorinox knife has a slender, straight blade with enough give to follow a bone and enough backbone to cut through a joint.Its slim profile and moderate flex make it especially good for boning out small fish, where the blade needs to ride over the rib bones without cutting through them. It handles poultry just as well, separating breast meat from the keel and thighs from the back.Hold the knife with the index finger along the spine for small fish and let the blade bend slightly against the frame. On poultry, use the tip to find the joint first, then cut through the cartilage rather than the bone.The Fibrox Pro 6-inch Narrow Semi-Flexible Boning Knife is the longer version for larger fish and pork. For a stiffer blade at this length, choose the Fibrox Pro 5-inch Narrow Stiff Boning Knife. Our Kitchen Knife Shapes guide compares boning flex. Learn More$33.00 -
Victorinox Fibrox Pro 6-inch Straight Stiff Wide Boning Knife
This 6-inch stiff, wide boning knife is built for strength and stability. Its straight edge breaks through stubborn joints, trims around bones and cartilage, and slices individual chops from a loin, which covers much of the work at a butcher block.The rigid blade does not bow when you lean on it, so the cut goes where you aim it. That makes it a good knife for beef and pork, where the bones are heavy and the connective tissue is tough. It can also be used as a fillet knife on firm, thick fish.Keep the point against the bone and draw the knife toward you in long, steady strokes. On a pork loin, run the edge down the chine and along the ribs, then turn the knife to cut chops of even thickness.For the same blade with a wood handle, choose the Hardwood 6-inch Straight Stiff Wide Boning Knife. The extra-wide 6-inch adds more height, and the 5-inch is the shorter version. Our Kitchen Knife Shapes guide explains stiff and flexible boning blades. Learn More$35.00 -
Victorinox Hardwood 4.75-inch Wavy Edge Utility Knife
The wavy edge of this 4.75-inch Victorinox utility knife grips and slices cleanly through delicate fruit and crusty bread without squashing either. It moves from a precision paring tool to a sharp table knife, which makes it one of the most useful small knives in the kitchen.Use it to slice tomatoes, citrus and sausages, cut a crusty roll or a bagel, and trim produce in the hand. At the table it works as a steak knife.The handle comes from the line Victorinox sold for decades as Rosewood and now calls Victorinox Hardwood, with modified maple stained in the traditional rosewood color.The straight-edged version is the Hardwood 4.75-inch Paring and Utility Knife. For a round-tipped serrated table knife, see the Swiss Classic 4.5-inch Round Tip Steak and Tomato Knife, and for a pair of wood-handled steak knives, the Hardwood 2-Piece Steak Knife Set. The table in the Details compares these knives, and our Kitchen Knife Shapes guide explains utility knives. Learn More$44.00 -
F. Dick 1905 4.5-inch Steak Knife, Plain Edge
A fine, plain edge slices a steak cleanly, without the tearing a serrated knife can cause, and this 4.5-inch 1905 steak knife keeps the texture and juices of the meat intact. It has the banded handle and substantial heft of the 1905 series.Plain-edged steak knives cut more like a kitchen knife, which suits diners who prefer a smooth slice. They can be honed and resharpened like any other knife, so with care they stay sharp for years. The weight in the hand also gives a sense of quality at the table.It also suits chops and roast chicken at the table.A matching set is the 1905 steak knife set. For serrated steak knives, see the Premier Plus 4.5-inch serrated steak knife and the Premier Plus 4-piece serrated steak knife set. Cut on wood or plastic boards and avoid scraping across porcelain plates, which dulls a plain edge. Learn More$53.95 -
Dexter-Russell Traditional 5-inch Fish Knife, Carbon Steel
Dexter-Russell has sold this pattern for generations, and its Dexter Outdoors line still calls it the Green River Traditional 5-inch fish knife. It is a short, stout working knife for the boat and the dock. It cuts bait and line, bleeds a catch, guts panfish and trout, and cleans small fish at the end of the day.The 5-inch blade is carbon steel, which Dexter describes as its classic high-carbon blade, individually ground and honed. Carbon steel takes a keen edge and sharpens quickly on a pocket stone, the reason many anglers still prefer it to stainless. It will rust if left wet with salt water and develops a dark patina with use. The model 4215 is a common search on our site, and these Traditional knives are especially popular with fishermen in the Northeast.
Fish Knife or Fillet Knife?Anglers who carry a knife on the belt or in a tackle bag can buy this same knife with a leather sheath as the Dexter Traditional 5-inch Fishing Knife and Sheath. For filleting larger fish, choose a longer, flexible blade such as the Sani-Safe 7-inch Narrow Flexible Fillet Knife. Learn More$24.25 -
Victorinox Fibrox Pro 6-inch Western Beef Skinner
The Western beef skinner is built for control when processing large animals. Its curved blade separates hide from muscle cleanly, which makes it a strong choice for beef, elk and other big game.Hold the hide taut with the free hand and keep the curve of the blade against the inside of the hide, using short, sweeping strokes. The belly of the blade does the work, so the point stays clear of the hide and the meat. The Fibrox Pro handle stays secure in wet, cold conditions, in the shop or the field.Skinning dulls an edge quickly, since hair carries grit. Keep a honing steel or a small sharpener nearby and touch up the edge between animals.For a shorter beef skinner, see the Fibrox Pro 5-inch Beef Skinning Knife. The Fibrox Pro 6-inch Skinning Knife has a wide upswept tip for sheep and deer, and the 5-inch lamb skinner suits smaller hides. Our Kitchen Knife Shapes guide and the table in the Details compare butchery shapes. Learn More$48.00 -
Victorinox Fibrox Pro 6-inch Curved Stiff Wide Granton Edge Boning Knife
This is the Victorinox curved, stiff, wide boning knife with a row of Granton hollows ground into each side of the blade. The hollows trap a thin layer of air as the knife moves through meat, so fat and lean slip off instead of clinging. That makes a difference on large, fatty cuts such as pork shoulder and brisket, where a plain blade drags on every stroke.The stiff blade holds a clean line while you work, which keeps cuts even, and the 6-inch length is easy to steer around joints and along the rib cage. The curve lets each stroke sweep along the bone rather than stabbing at it.Granton hollows are most useful to cutters who work with this knife all day. If you would rather have the same blade without them, we also carry the Fibrox Pro 6-inch Curved Stiff Wide Boning Knife. For a firm blade with a little give, the Fibrox Pro 6-inch Curved Semi-Stiff Boning Knife is the one to compare.The Details compare every Victorinox boning blade, from stiff to super flex.

R. Murphy 4-inch Stainless Steel Produce Knife, Green Handle
Bigger produce calls for more blade. The R. Murphy 4-inch produce knife gives grocers and farm crews an extra inch over the 3-inch models, so a head of cabbage or a melon takes fewer strokes to cut through.Produce workers use it to trim cabbage and lettuce, cut stems and split melons and squash to check their ripeness. The blade is square at the point, so you can work close to the rest of a display or a crate without stabbing into it. Stainless steel stands up to the wet conditions of a produce room or a wash station with less upkeep than carbon steel, though it should still be dried at the end of a shift.For close trimming and splitting small fruit, the shorter 3-inch carbon steel produce knife is quick and precise. The 3-inch orange-handled produce knife adds a bright handle that is easy to find in the field. Learn More$13.95 -
Dexter-Russell Traditional 5.25-inch Sheep Skinning Knife, Carbon Steel
Sheep and lamb hides are thin and cling tightly to the carcass, so skinning them takes a short blade with a pronounced curve that can be worked in close. This Dexter-Russell Traditional sheep skinner has a 5.25-inch curved, rigid blade for exactly that, and Dexter recommends it for skinning fish, pigs, chickens and other wild game and farm animals as well.The carbon steel blade sharpens quickly in the field and takes a very fine edge. It draws more search visits than any other Dexter knife on our site, from farmers and hunters who process their own lambs, and it has a long history with customers in the Northeast.Carbon steel will rust if it is put away wet, so it needs a quick wipe and a light coat of oil after the work is done.
Choosing a Skinning KnifeFor deer and cattle, the wider, stain-free Sani-Safe 6-inch Skinning Knife covers more hide per stroke. A leather Dexter-Russell Skinning Knife Sheath is sold separately. Learn More$20.25 -
F. Dick ErgoGrip 5-inch Curved Stiff Boning Knife, Blue Handle
Separating wings and legs on chicken and other poultry is the job this 5-inch curved stiff blade was shaped for. Its upswept tip slips into the joint, and its rigid spine lets the cutter lever the joint apart without the blade bending.The thumb rest on the ErgoGrip handle gives the cutter a place to press when the knife is held like a dagger, which is how professional meat cutters hold a boning knife for most of a shift. The curve adds edge length for drawing cuts along the thigh and keel, so the knife works quickly on a poultry line.Five inches is short enough to turn inside a chicken carcass and long enough to free the thigh in a single pull.The same blade is sold with a black handle and a red handle for plants that assign handle colors to stations or to raw and cooked product. For larger birds and pork, the 6-inch curved stiff boning knife gives more reach. Learn More$16.90
