- The knife must be particularly easy to grip, as it requires frequent handling. The boning knife is held like a dagger and guided along the bone so that the meat is removed cleanly and evenly. When it is used for shearing, i.e. cutting meat, the knife is held in the normal gripping position, as it is when removing tendons or skin. Our boning knives are specially designed for this professional use in terms of blade shape, handle design and the materials used.
- The art of boning was already in demand in all ancient cultures. In those days, it was performed with sharpened horn or by a specially shaped stone. A cutting edge was created by hitting the edges of the hard stone. Both of these ancient tools already bore a certain resemblance to today's boning knives. The shape of the blade has changed slightly over the years. The knife was initially only used to remove the bones. Skinning, removing the tendons and expertly cutting the individual pieces only came later.
- A boning knife has a narrow blade with a pointed tip. Nowadays, the curved version is more in demand because it is easier to slide along the bone. The curved shape creates a longer cutting edge. This allows you to make a pulling cut, and the more comfortable hand position is easier on the wrist.
- The length of blade used depends on the size of the animal or the piece of meat to be cut as well as the kind of cuts. Blade flexibility depends on the intended use, but also on personal preferences. The best thing to do is to assemble your personal selection according to your intended purpose.
