Victorinox Fibrox Pro 6-inch Curved Semi-Stiff Boning Knife, Blue Handle

This is the Victorinox curved semi-stiff boning knife with a blue Fibrox Pro handle. The blade is the same one Victorinox fits to its black handle; the color lets a kitchen dedicate this knife to one food group under a HACCP color-coding plan, so it never crosses into another station.

The semi-stiff blade curves with the natural shape of the meat, making it easier to work around bones, tendons and fat. It is ideal for trimming fat and portioning meats and poultry, and it debones fish as well. The curve gives a smooth, gliding stroke, and the point makes deep cuts and opens joints.

Draw the knife toward you along the bone and let the slight flex keep the edge in contact. The textured handle stays secure when the hands are wet or greasy.

The same blade comes with a black, a red and a yellow handle, and in the Hardwood line. Our Kitchen Knife Shapes guide compares boning flex.

    Keeping the Edge

    Victorinox steel at this hardness takes a fine edge quickly and responds well to honing. A few light strokes on a honing steel during a work session keep the edge aligned; sharpen on a stone or a guided sharpener when honing no longer brings it back. Our Honing Rod Guide compares regular, fine and polishing cuts, and the Victorinox 12-inch fine cut honing steel suits these blades.


    Care

    • Victorinox rates Fibrox Pro knives dishwasher safe. Washing by hand and drying at once keeps the edge from knocking against other items in the rack.
    • Cut on wood or soft composite boards rather than glass, stone or ceramic.
    • Store in a block, on a magnetic strip or in a sleeve such as the Victorinox Knife Safe for 4-inch to 6-inch Knives, not loose in a drawer.
