About Honesuki
The Honesuki is a Japanese-style boning knife. Initially designed for poultry and small animals like rabbits, it excels for much larger butchering and fish filleting work. It has a relatively thick heel for scraping meat from bones and a thinner tip for precise cuts. You don't want to force this knife through bone, but it's perfect for cutting through cartilage and tendons.
