What to know before you buy
About this knife
- Honesuki knives of this 170mm length are a mid size that suits smaller boards and kitchens.
- It has a Japanese-style (wa) handle: a handle without a metal bolster, set into the blade with a hidden tang.
- R2/SG2 is a stainless steel, which resists rust better than carbon steel.
Limits to know
- Like any hard Japanese blade, keep it off bones, frozen food and glass or stone boards.
Written from this knife's catalog record (steel, handle, length, grind). Knife Fit has not tested it; see how we work.
Good to know for beginners
A honesuki is a stiff, triangular Japanese boning knife for breaking down chicken and trimming meat around joints. Work between the bones with the tip and heel; never chop through them. Most honesuki are ground for right-handers. R2/SG2 is stainless, so it shrugs off a wet board. The Japanese wa handle is light and puts the balance toward the blade.
