Zwilling  Pro 5.5" Flexible Boning Knife

Zwilling Pro 5.5" Flexible Boning Knife
Whether you’re the kind of cook who buys their meat fresh from the butcher, or you’re just trying to get the meat off of a T-bone steak, the Zwilling Pro 5.5" Flexible Boning Knife is an essential addition to your kitchen toolkit. Made in Germany and designed in Italy with 280 years of knife making experience to build off of, this boning knife is extremely well-suited to get the job done when you need to slice meat off of a bone. The curved bolster allows for precise cuts to be made safely and comfortably, while the long, slim and flexible blade makes it easy to maneuver your cuts to the shape of the bone. The blade is forged from high-carbon stainless steel and ice-hardened, so it’s not only incredibly strong and resilient, it starts sharper and stays sharper longer than most standard knives. And, there’s need to worry about potential nicks when cleaning your Zwilling boning knife—it’s completely dishwasher safe, so you can just toss it in with the rest of your dishes when you’re done!   Dimensions: Length: 12.6"; Width: 1.18”; Height: 0.59" Care & Use: Dishwasher safe Materials: High-carbon stainless steel
