Mercer Millennia 6-inch Wide Boning Knife

A wider boning blade gives more steel to steer with and more knuckle room when separating large cuts. The Millennia 6-inch Wide Boning Knife suits beef and pork subprimals, venison quarters and brisket trimming, where a very narrow blade can feel unstable.

It is stamped from high-carbon Japanese steel, light in the hand and quick to sharpen. The textured handle and finger guard help on a cold, wet board.

For a narrower blade, see the Millennia 6-inch Stiff Boning Knife. The Millennia 6-inch Stiff Curved Boning Knife follows the curve of a bone.

    Care

    • Wash by hand after each use with warm water and a mild soap, then dry with a soft towel. Mercer advises against the dishwasher: heat can break down the handle, and caustic detergent can stain and pit the blade.
    • Do not leave the knife soaking. If chlorine or bleach touches the blade, rinse it off at once.
    • Avoid long contact with aluminum pans or a stainless steel sink, and do not leave the knife standing in condiments held in metal pans. Prolonged contact can cause pitting.
    • Store the knife in a block, on a magnetic bar or in a knife guard.
