Beautiful and functional blade

Beautiful filet knife and stupid sharp. This fillet knife is particularly well designed. Warning - don’t use it or its sisters if you are drinking wine. You could easily perform surgery with this knife...

Quality knife

This was a gift. Not packaged well enough for the sharp blade not to cut through the wrapping. Recipient got cut while undoing shipping package. He said this was the best knife he now owns and uses.

Sharp, flexible, and thin enough to find it point!

Love this knife. Makes making sushi and filleting fish a snap. Not super flexible, but very sharp, and the slight curve really helps you slice through fish. Additionally, the thin point makes it easy to find your way around bones on smaller fish like snappers. Handle feels great to hold like other shun knives.

Five Stars

Great filleting knife.

Love my Shun knives

Love my Shun knives. This one was one I wanted for some time . . . very happy with it

I love this profile!

I butcher a lot of sub primals and at first, this blade profile was very strange to use and almost dangerous, but when you spend some time to learn the new shape, it really grows on you and keeps a nice sharp edge. Hey, it’s also much easier to sharpen than a traditional boning knife.

It’s the very best I’ve owned

It’s the very best I’ve owned. I’ve seen my father use many different knives his input was he wished he had bought the Shun boning knife years ago. I’m very impressed.

HOLY CRAP!

This is the most amazing boning knife i have ever used or seen. It's not very flexible for filleting but holds an edge like a dream. One word for this knife WOW don't cut yourself, slices through everything like butter even salmon bones ! buy and enjoy!

Boner

Real sharp boner. Love it for butchering. Wish I could find another one that’s a little longer

Super freaking sharp knife!

This is my 3rd Shun knife and 2nd in the Damascus/VG10 steel. These knives are incredibly sharp and they slice through most items with minimal to no pressure. I've used this knife to cut rib roast into rib-eye's, trim tenderloins, cut New York strips, fish, etc. The upward curve in the blade does take some getting used to but this has quickly become my favorite knife for cutting and slicing any type of meat.
