Boning Knives
Easily identified by their narrow blade and sharply pointed tip, boning knives are ideal for precisely removing bones from meat, fish and poultry. Boning knives are sold with an array of curvatures, widths and strengths so it is important to pick the knife with the appropriate shape and flexibility for the task at hand.

The F. Dick ErgoGrip 5 in. Curved Stiff Boning Knife is the optimal knife for separating wings and legs on chicken and other poultry, the knife is comfortable with a thumb rest for professional meat cutters.
The boning knife is your most important tool in everyday work, so with our professional quality we guarantee you lasting cutting power – for a clean cut through the meat fibres and precise guidance of the knife along the bone. This allows for effortless, fatigue-free work. Your wrists are not subjected to unnecessary strain. After all, working with a dull boning knife requires more strength, places greater strain on the joints, increases the risk of accidents and can lead to tension and pain. The boning knife is also used by hunters, anglers and cooks. They appreciate the professional design of the blades and the handle.
For Friedrich Dick's boning knives we exclusively use high-quality knife alloys (X55CrMo14) and material compositions for the blade and handle. The blade's balanced hardness of 56° HRC significantly reduces material consumption and ensures that the cutting edge has a long life time. For you, this means considerably less sharpening. In our special hardening process, each blade is individually case-hardened and monitored – with optimum results in terms of hardness and structure.
With the polished blade, we guarantee the highest level of hygiene. This means that less residue can adhere to the blade, making them corrosion-resistant and easier to clean. There is no gap at the blade exit from the handle, and the handle absorbs neither grease nor dirt. Furthermore, it is easy to clean and resistant to heat, shocks and abrasion. This is just one of the reasons why the knives have been awarded the American NSF seal for hygiene and quality.

Surgical Precision for the Hunt and the Kitchen
When it comes to processing large proteins, the margin for error is razor-thin. The Victorinox Hardwood 6” Straight Boning Knife is not just a tool; it is a specialized instrument designed for the heavy-duty demands of butchers, hunters, and serious home chefs. Unlike flexible blades that can deflect when hitting dense cartilage or bone, this stiff, narrow blade provides the rigid leverage required for clean, efficient separation of meat from bone with surgical accuracy.
Crafted in Ibach, Switzerland, the heart of the set is the high-carbon martensitic stainless steel blade. This specific alloy is chosen for its unique ability to hold a 50/50 bevel edge through hours of repetitive work while remaining easy to hone in the field. The straight, narrow profile allows you to navigate tight joints and deep sockets where standard chef's knives fail.
Complementing the steel is the ergonomic modified maple hardwood handle. Beyond its classic aesthetic, the wood provides a natural, slip-resistant grip that improves with use—becoming even more secure in wet or greasy conditions. To ensure this professional investment lasts a lifetime, we have bundled it with the genuine Victorinox 6" Leather Sheath. This isn't a mere accessory; it is heavy-duty armor for your blade, featuring a reinforced welt and integrated belt loop, making it the definitive setup for field dressing or high-volume commercial kitchen shifts. Whether you are breaking down a carcass in a professional shop or processing venison in the backcountry, this Victorinox duo delivers the reliability and 'Helpful Content' standards demanded by modern culinary experts.
