F. Dick ErgoGrip 8.25-inch Sticking Knife
Known to hunters and hog farmers as a pig sticker, this double-edged ErgoGrip dagger is made for bleeding an animal after it has been stunned. A complete bleed gives whiter meat and less gamey flavor, which matters most on wild boar, deer and elk.The blade narrows to a pronounced point and has a diamond-shaped cross-section with an edge on both sides. That shape delivers the precise, quick vein incision that sticking calls for. The straight, symmetrical handle has a prominent finger guard, and its textured surface stays secure when it is wet and greasy.The 8.25-inch blade gives the reach needed on large hogs and wild boar.Butchers pair a sticking knife with a skinning knife and a gut and tripe knife as the basic slaughter kit. For smaller animals, the single-edged 6-inch and 7-inch ErgoGrip sticking knives are shorter. Store it in a Single Knife Scabbard or the F. Dick Knife Scabbard with Belt. Learn More$53.95 -
F. Dick 1905 7-inch Carving and Boning Knife
One of our team had never seen this shape in German steel before, counts this 7-inch 1905 knife among their own top picks, and calls it one of the best they have used for removing silver skin from tenderloins and veal legs. It trims fat from the back of ribs well and works as a boning knife for most jobs.The blade sits between a boning knife and a carving knife. It is long enough to follow a tenderloin in one pass and pointed enough to work around bones. The same member of staff finds the shape easier to resharpen than a typical boning knife, which matters on a knife used every day.The 7-inch length is also comfortable for trimming lamb racks and pork loins.For poultry joints and closer boning, the 1905 6-inch flexible boning knife bends further. Carving cooked meat suits the 1905 8-inch carving knife, and the 1905 7-inch fillet knife is shaped for fish. The comparison table below lists the 1905 slicing knives. Learn More$88.40 -
F. Dick Red Spirit AJAX 8-inch Chef’s Knife
F. Dick designed the AJAX shape to bridge the gap between a cleaver and a chef’s knife, and the Red Spirit AJAX brings that idea to barbecue pitmasters and butchers. Its curved belly and substantial weight carry it through smoked brisket, pork shoulder and heavy prep.A tall, weighty blade does more of the work than a standard chef’s knife, which helps with thick bark and connective tissue. The curve lets the cook rock through a stack of onions or herbs, and the height keeps the knuckles well above the board. Despite its size, the round Red Spirit handle keeps it easy to maneuver.Its height also gives the guiding hand a flat face to rest against when slicing through a thick flat of brisket.The AJAX has its own belt-carry cover, the F. Dick blade cover for the Red Spirit AJAX. A heavier forged version is the 1905 AJAX butcher’s chef’s knife, and the AJAX also comes in the Red Spirit Pit Master BBQ set. Learn More$87.75 -
F. Dick ExpertGrip 2K 8.25-inch Breaking Knife
High-volume breaking work wears on the hand, and this 8.25-inch knife pairs F. Dick’s breaking blade with the cushioned ExpertGrip 2K handle. It breaks hogs, lamb and deer into subprimals and cleans tendon and fat from the pieces.The two-component handle has a hard core with a soft outer shell, so the grip stays secure through grease and moisture without becoming hard on the palm.

The curved, narrow blade is made for the long, flowing strokes of breaking.At 8.25 inches, the blade reaches through a pork shoulder or a leg of lamb in one stroke, and the tip stays close enough to follow a seam. The soft shell also absorbs some of the shock of repeated pulling cuts.The 10-inch ExpertGrip 2K breaking knife handles beef.

F. Dick ErgoGrip 10-inch Scimitar

It trims the fat cap and tail, removes silver skin and scrap, and then cuts even steaks.The long, upswept curve lets the edge roll through a steak in one motion, so the cut face stays smooth. A polished blade sheds residue, and the ErgoGrip handle has an extra-wide thumb rest and a pronounced guard for a secure grip on long strokes.The 10-inch length is easier to steer than the 12-inch model when trimming a strip or tenderloin, and it still finishes most steaks in one stroke.The 12-inch ErgoGrip scimitar handles whole primals and wider steaks. For a rounded tip, see the 10-inch bull nose butcher knife. Both scimitars fit the F. Dick Scimitar Knife Sheath, and we are glad to test the sheath on another knife for fit if you call.

F. Dick ErgoGrip 7-inch Semi-Flexible Fillet Knife
Anglers and fish processors use a fillet knife to take the fillets off the frame with little waste, and this 7-inch ErgoGrip model also loosens skin and pin bones. In meat processing, it removes tendons and skin before portioning.The long, slender blade curves upward slightly and widens toward the front, which adds surface for a long, pulling cut. Semi-flex lets the edge ride over the rib bones and stay close. The blade moves in a slight wave as it cuts, which helps it follow the contour of the fish.The 7-inch length suits fish such as trout, walleye and salmon fillets. It is long enough to take the fillet in a few strokes and short enough to control near the head. It also skins the fillet afterward by running the blade flat along the skin.For longer boning cuts on meat, the ErgoGrip 7-inch semi-flexible boning knife is the closer match. Small fish and gill work suit the 4-inch small fillet knife. Our knife shapes guide compares fillet and boning profiles. Learn More$24.05 -
F. Dick ErgoGrip 7-inch Semi-Flexible Boning Knife
The longest boning blade in this ErgoGrip group, the 7-inch semi-flexible knife handles longer cuts along the bone and doubles as a fillet knife for fish. For a butcher who works through meat, poultry and fish in the same day, one blade that moves between them saves a knife change.The extra length lets the edge follow a full rib or the length of a loin in one pull, and the semi-flex blade gives enough to stay against the bone. It still has the spine to cut a joint on a turkey or take a leg off a lamb.Seven inches also gives a longer stroke when skinning a fish fillet or removing the silver skin from a whole tenderloin.If the main job is fish, the 7-inch ErgoGrip semi-flexible fillet knife has a profile built for lifting fillets. For poultry work, the shorter 6-inch semi-flexible boning knife is quicker in the joints. Our guide to kitchen knife shapes compares boning and fillet profiles. Learn More$22.10 -
F. Dick ErgoGrip 8.25-inch Breaking Knife
Breaking primal cuts into subprimals on hogs, lamb and deer calls for a blade long enough for a flowing pull and short enough to steer, and this 8.25-inch ErgoGrip breaking knife sits in that range. Hunters use the same length for dressing out deer and elk.A breaking knife is narrow and curves upward to a point. That shape lets the edge glide through meat in long strokes while the hand stays in a comfortable position, which spares the wrist over a shift. It also cleans up tendons and fatty tissue so the cut is ready for portioning.The 8.25-inch blade gives the cutter close control at the tip when separating a ham or shoulder into its muscles, while still reaching through the piece in one stroke.For beef sides and larger primals, the 10-inch ErgoGrip breaking knife adds reach.

F. Dick Red Spirit Hektor 10-inch Granton Edge Scimitar
Named Hektor, this 10-inch Red Spirit scimitar trims fat and sinew, breaks down large cuts and portions steaks, and it slices roasts at the table as well. A granton edge along the blade keeps slices from clinging.Scimitars are a butcher’s tool, and many are made of soft steel that is quick to hone but dulls quickly. The Red Spirit steel should hold its edge longer between honings, which makes it a dependable blade for a long session at the board. The long, upswept curve rolls through a steak in one stroke and leaves a smooth cut face.At a cookout, it doubles as a slicer for tri-tip and smoked turkey breast.For plant and counter work, the ErgoGrip 10-inch scimitar is built around a butcher’s handle. The Hektor is also part of the Red Spirit Pit Master BBQ set, and the F. Dick Scimitar Knife Sheath protects the edge. Our knife shapes guide covers scimitars. Learn More$94.90 -
F. Dick 1905 AJAX 9-inch Butcher’s Chef’s Knife
The AJAX combines some of the heft of a cleaver with the shape of a chef’s knife, and it is made for heavy meat portioning and high-volume prep. It has a broad blade and a wide, sweeping belly that rocks through a brisket or a stack of cabbage.Weight is what sets it apart from a standard 8-inch chef’s knife. The thick spine and tall blade carry the cut through dense food with less effort from the wrist, and the height gives generous knuckle clearance. It is at home on a butcher’s block breaking down subprimals and in a kitchen chopping large volumes of vegetables.The weight also helps when cutting through winter squash.The AJAX has its own fitted 1905 Ajax sheath for carrying it safely. For lighter everyday work, the 1905 8-inch chef’s knife is quicker in the hand. A different take on the same idea is the Red Spirit AJAX 8-inch chef’s knife. Learn More$127.40
