Which Boning Knife

Porcine Perfection · 01-01-2013, 06:43 PM

Looking for a trimming knife. Rather than flip a coin I thought I would throw up a quick poll.

A
Victorinox 47513 6-Inch Flex Boning Knife with Fibrox Handle

B
Victorinox Cutlery 6-Inch Semi-Stiff Boning Knife, Black Fibrox Handle

tjus77 · 01-01-2013, 06:47 PM

B would be my choice

Smokin Mike · 01-01-2013, 06:56 PM

Jim,

I went to Ambrosi Bros to get my boning knife, you really get the feel of the knife.

Personally my favorite boning knife I use came from one of the knife drawers they have in the front with all the retired knifes from lease.

I own A.

buccaneer · 01-01-2013, 07:15 PM

I use this

benniesdad · 01-01-2013, 07:38 PM

Depends what your primary uses will be. For things with feathers and scales the flexible blade is better (A). For things that had hide and heavy bones, the stiffer blade will serve you better (B). Pick your compromise.

For meat I'd go with B

Nice knife Bucc. What is it?

PBHoss · 01-01-2013, 09:27 PM

I love my Dexter-Russell 6-inch boning knife. My uncle has had the same one for over 30 years and it's in great shape.

realspaazz · 01-01-2013, 09:34 PM

I have the semi-stiff (with the rosewood handles) one of my favorite knives to use.

Birdie · 01-01-2013, 09:53 PM

I got B for Christmas and really like it.

Does the handle get slick at all when it gets wet or greasy?
