F. Dick ExpertGrip 2K 6-inch Straight Stiff Boning Knife

A 6-inch stiff blade on F. Dick’s soft-shell handle suits cutters who bone pork shoulders, beef chucks and whole birds for hours at a time. The length reaches along a seam in one pass, and the stiff spine keeps the cut straight.

The ExpertGrip 2K handle has a hard core for control and a softer shell for grip and comfort. Its open shape fits a wide range of hand sizes, so it works when one set of knives serves a whole crew. A straight edge stays in contact on flat bones such as the blade bone and the keel.

The extra inch also helps on whole turkeys, where the breast and thigh bones are longer than a 5-inch blade can follow in one pass.

The 5-inch ExpertGrip 2K straight stiff boning knife is the shorter option for poultry joints. For a curved edge, look at the 6-inch ExpertGrip 2K curved stiff boning knife. The comparison table below shows every ExpertGrip and MasterGrip boning blade we stock.

    ExpertGrip 2K and MasterGrip Boning Knives

    Both handle lines take the same 56 HRC boning blades as the F. Dick ErgoGrip knives. ExpertGrip 2K pairs a hard core with a soft outer shell; MasterGrip has an open grip end and a reduced finger guard so the hand can shift position.

    Tips for Best Results

    A few passes on a steel keep this edge aligned between sharpenings. Hold any consistent angle from 15 to 25 degrees. For a plant or shop, the EuroCut 12-inch Round Regular Cut Steel is our best-selling steel; the Dickoron Micro 12-inch Oval Super Fine Cut Steel gives a finer edge. See our honing steel guide for technique.


    Care

    Wash by hand in warm water with a mild detergent, rinse, and dry the knife before putting it away. Store it in a scabbard, sheath or blade guard so the edge does not knock against other tools.
