Dexter-Russell Sani-Safe 6-inch Narrow Boning Knife

Separating a chicken thigh from the backbone or working a knife around a pork shoulder blade calls for a narrow point that fits into joints. Dexter-Russell built this 6-inch Sani-Safe boning knife for that work, with a slim, firm blade that steers between cartilage and bone and handles the smaller portions where a wider blade gets in the way. It also trims silver skin.

The Sani-Safe line goes back to 1941, when Dexter introduced its first Sani-Dexter knives for commercial kitchens, and it is still the series meat departments and processing plants reach for. The handle stays secure in a greasy hand, and it is sealed to the blade so there is no gap for food to collect. Brine and blood will not rust the blade, so the knife can go from the board to the sanitizer sink without special treatment.
