Masakage Yuki Honesuki (boning knife), 150 mm
Masakage Yuki Honesuki 15cm,
This Japanese boning knife has a core of Japanese Shirogami #2 White carbon steel. This double-sided sharpened knife has a Nashiji pattern which gives the knife a snow-like appearance, hence the name Yuki which means snow in Japanese. Completely hand-forged by master blacksmith Hiroshi Kato, this knife is one of a kind. The blade is manually sharpened and has no thickenings, which makes sharpening very easy. A boning knife has been developed for cleaving thin bones (chicken bone) and removing cartilage and membranes from raw meat.
