F. Dick Fish Scaler
Scaling a whole fish is quicker and tidier with a dedicated tool, and the F. Dick fish scaler has a wide toothed head that lifts scales without cutting the skin. It suits anglers, fishmongers and cooks who buy whole snapper or bass.Work from tail to head, against the lie of the scales, with short, firm strokes. The wide head covers more of the fish with each pass, and the blue hard plastic handle gives a secure grip on a wet, slippery fish. Scaling under running water or inside a large plastic bag keeps the scales from scattering across the kitchen.Rinse the fish afterward to wash away any loose scales, and pat it dry before filleting. Rinse the scaler right away too, before the scales dry onto the teeth.Once the fish is scaled, a fillet knife such as the ProDynamic 8.5-inch fillet knife takes it apart. The F. Dick fish bone tweezers then pull the pin bones from the fillets. Learn More$19.50 -
F. Dick Bell Scraper
After a hog is scalded, the hair and the outer layer of skin have to come off quickly, and a bell scraper is the hand tool for that job. This F. Dick scraper is used by butchers, small farms and home processors who dehair pigs by hand.The bell shape lets the user press down with the palm and draw the scraper across the hide, clearing a wide strip with each stroke. Its rounded edge follows the curves of the shoulders and hams without cutting into the skin, which keeps the skin and fat intact for products that need them.Work while the hide is still hot from the scald, since the hair releases most easily then. After dehairing, the carcass moves on to opening and evisceration with tools such as the F. Dick ErgoGrip special gutting knife and the ErgoGrip skinning knife. The F. Dick hand hook helps move and hold pieces as they are cut. Learn More
