Victorinox - 47645 Swiss Army Cutlery Fibrox Pro Curved Boning Knife, Semi-Stiff Blade, 6-Inch

Tagliente e preciso

I have bought this knife in mid-Spring 2020 and I do not regret it at all! The knife is one of the sharpest knives I have ever seen - put my other expensive knives to shame. The price is great, (buy more than 1- you will thank me for this!!) the curved-shape is perfect for cutting fish, steak, chicken, pork, bone out of pork (pork shoulders) and beef... it does an amazing job. I even use it for cutting fruits, melons, .... well everything really. I love it. The one I chose was a bit firm with the blade - I might get the more flexible one, if you have seen those chef videos then I suggest the flexible one. Else the firm does not bend as much. However, I love it and I think it is amazing and allows you to cut in angles you didn't know was possible especially getting more meat off a bone (Pork blade) or how much fat/membrane you can take off without cutting off the real meat. If you think about it - it allows you to cook better and saves you from throwing away meat that you can use/eat. Now one of the best features not mentioned much is the handle... it is super great ... what a grip. I have HUGE hands so most knives bother me or do not provide a good grip or can become slippery due to prepping/grease/water. Now if you cutting off pork fat or cutting fish or have running water - in most cases the grip is important and this has the best grip I have ever seen. Now my wife has small hands and she loves this too... so it caters to both sizes. I can tell you that this knife is one that I would give as a gift and I would expect a THANK YOU card because it is just that good! PS - my wife found there is a BladeSafe from Victorinox - it covers the blade and allows you to carry it (if traveling) or if you got little ones -it does a good job covering the blade and allows you to throw it in a bag/purse/cooler and not worry about getting cut. Love it. Just wanted to let you know.

Nice item!

Have you ever tried trimming a whole brisket or any kind of primal with a santoku knife? Yeah.. I wouldn't recommend it. That's what I've been doing. Until now, when I discovered there was actually a knife made for this specific purpose!Enter: Victorinox boning knife.Let me say this. Right out of the box, this knife is sharp. Like, really sharp. I actually almost unintentionally stabbed myself taking it out of the box because I didn't realize the pointed end of it had pierced right through the thin plastic protector that it ships in (be careful of this as well, you want to test it on a cutting board only!)I wasted no time putting this knife to work. I know it's an overused cliché, but this knife literally went through chicken breast like a hot knife through butter. I pretty much just moved the knife towards the chicken with almost no force at all and it sliced right through it. I was easily able to clean up the chicken and butterfly it as well without having to switch knives.Brisket, same story. I trimmed up a whole 5.5kg brisket with minimal effort. The sharpness of the edge helps you slice right through thick pieces of fat, and the curvature on the blade allows you to work with excellent precision. When I was done with trimming the fat, it cut right through the meat with the same level of ease to give me four beautifully sized portions.Ribs? Child's play. Don't cut between bones with a ceramic knife like this chump here only to realize later that a portion of your knife is missing because the blade broke on a bone. A boning knife like this will effortlessly separate those ribs when you're prepping them or when they're ready to eat.I'm an amateur in the kitchen (you already knew this from line one of the review). Even though some knives go into the hundreds and even thousands of dollars, I didn't need that. I just needed something that was decent quality that worked and was affordable. I can tell you that this knife checks off all of those boxes.It's not just designed in but also crafted in Switzerland, so you know right away you're getting a quality product, and the price is right at under $50. If you're like me and you enjoy making ribs, brisket, steak, etc., and you don't have a knife like this in your arsenal, do yourself a favour and get this thing. Don't put it off for 33 years like I did. Next thing you know, you'll be slicing through all your favourite meats without having to slice into your bank account.

Good
