Honesuki

Home | Honesuki

The Japanese answer to the boning knife. Honesuki are ground withe right- or left-hand bias and with more convexity on the omote (outside) side but without the concave ura (inside) found on single-bevel knives. 

Honesuki Kaku are triangular poultry boning and breaking knives. This is the knife for breaking down whole chickens. It offers toughness at the heel and precisionat the tip.  A garasuki is an oversize kaku used primarliy for breaking.

Honesuki maru is used as a heavy breaking knife and is especially good for an overhand grip on hanging meats. It's blade design allows it to separate primal cuts as well as separating joints. Its tough but precise when sharp. It's rigidity limits its use when trimming and seaming.
