Kogetsu 光月 Honesuki (boning knife) 145 mm
Kogetsu Honesuki (Boning Knife),
Double-sided sharpened blade made of stainless Japanese Mo-V steel. The handle is made of hollow 18-8 stainless steel and this makes the knife resistant to sterilization processes (no chlorine). The blade is extremely thin and manually sharpened and has no thickenings which makes sharpening very easy.
- Blade length: 145 mm
- Total length: 265 mm
- Weight: 124 grams
- Blade thickness (measured on the back 1 cm from handle): 2.0 mm
- Steel type: Japanese Mo-V stainless steel

- Handle: 18-8 stainless steel, hollow equipped with "golf ball" dents so that it remains stiff if the handle is damp.
Like all Japanese knives, the Kogetsu knives are not suitable for daily dishwashing. Because these knives are made of stainless steel, it is occasionally possible to clean or sterilize the knife (in a dishwasher or sterilizer). Cleaning and drying after each use is the best treatment for these exclusive products.
