The Honesuki is a Japanese-style boning and utility knife designed for precision, strength, and control. With its pointed tip and firm spine, it excels at breaking down poultry, trimming meat, and working around bones with surgical accuracy.
Forged from N690 stainless steel, it delivers superb edge retention, corrosion resistance, and a crisp, clean cutting feel. The Wa-style handle features beautifully figured Curly Myrtle, paired with a Buffalo Horn ferrule and Brass Spacer, giving it a warm, natural balance that feels solid and refined in hand.
