Victorinox Hardwood 6-inch Curved Wide Semi-Stiff Boning Knife

Victorinox Hardwood 6-inch Curved Wide Semi-Stiff Boning Knife

The Victorinox wood-handled boning knives trace their shape to the knives used in Chicago steakhouses, which is why this one can also be used as a sturdy steak knife. The line was sold as Rosewood for many years; it is now called Victorinox Hardwood, with handles of modified maple in the traditional rosewood stain.

In the kitchen, the curved, wide, semi-stiff blade gives smooth, controlled cuts around bones and joints. The curve follows the contour of the bone, the width adds stability, and the semi-stiff temper bends slightly so the edge stays against the frame. It is good for deboning poultry, trimming other meats and filleting fish.

At the table, the same blade slices a thick rib steak or a pork chop cleanly. Wash it by hand and dry it after use, as you would any wood-handled knife.

For a stiffer curved blade with a synthetic handle, see the Fibrox Pro 6-inch Curved Stiff Wide Boning Knife. The Hardwood Granton version adds Granton hollows to a stiff curved blade, and the Hardwood 6-inch Curved Semi-Stiff Boning Knife has a narrower curve. Our Kitchen Knife Shapes guide explains boning shapes.

Choosing a Victorinox Boning Knife

Narrow blades turn tightly around joints; wide blades add stability and leave more steel for resharpening. Our Kitchen Knife Shapes guide explains each shape, and the full range is in our Victorinox boning knives category.

Blade	How it behaves	Typical jobs	Example
Stiff, straight	Holds a straight line and resists bending	Beef and pork joints, cartilage, chops	Fibrox Pro 6-inch Stiff Wide
Stiff, curved and wide	Rigid blade with a sweep that follows the bone	Larger cuts, long strokes along ribs and shoulders	Fibrox Pro 6-inch Curved Stiff Wide
Semi-stiff, curved	Firm enough to work joints, with a little give along bone	General boning of poultry, pork and beef	Fibrox Pro 6-inch Curved Semi-Stiff
Flexible	Bends to trace the shape of the bone	Poultry, fish, silver skin	Fibrox Pro 6-inch Flexible
Super flex	The most bend, for working closest to the bone	Long hours of trimming and close boning	Dual Grip 6-inch Curved Super Flex

Choosing a Handle

Victorinox fits the same Swiss blades to several handles, so a shape you like can be chosen in the grip that suits your work.

Handle	Material	Care	Who it suits
Black Fibrox Pro	Textured TPE, slip-resistant when wet	Dishwasher safe per Victorinox; hand washing protects the edge	Commercial kitchens, processing rooms and home cooks who want an easy-care grip
Colored Fibrox Pro	The same TPE handle in red, blue, yellow or green	Same as black Fibrox Pro	Kitchens that assign knives to food groups under a HACCP color-coding plan, and anyone who wants a knife that is easy to spot
Fibrox Pro Dual Grip	Two-component, non-slip handle that supports the hand and wrist	Same as black Fibrox Pro	Cutters who work for hours at a time and want more support for the hand and wrist
Hardwood (formerly Rosewood)	Modified maple stained in the traditional rosewood color	Hand wash only	Butchers and cooks who prefer the feel and look of a wood handle

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

Hand wash only. Wash with warm, soapy water and dry at once; do not soak the wood handle or put it in a dishwasher.
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.
