Commonly Asked Questions

What makes a honesuki different from other boning knives?

A honesuki features a thick, triangular blade and acute tip, optimized for puncturing skin and cutting around joints. Unlike flexible fillet knives, the honesuki’s rigidity offers better power transfer for poultry deboning.

How do I maintain the knife’s edge?

Hand wash and dry immediately after use to prevent rust. Regularly hone with a ceramic rod and sharpen on a water stone as needed to maintain the 60±1 HRC hardness edge.

Is the handle hygienic?

Yes. The pakka wood handle is stabilized with resin, making it moisture-resistant and easy to clean. Its seamless join to the blade prevents debris buildup.

Can this knife handle heavy-duty tasks?

Absolutely. The KG-4ES’s high-carbon steel blade and full tang construction provide strength for trimming, slicing tendons, and small bones with confidence.
