The Honesuki is a Japanese boning knife, the blade tend to be thick at the spine making it very rigid. Once you get your head around the triangle shape and the rugged design you will understand quickly that this is a perfect knife for chicken especially. Its also perfect for working round larger joints of meat with bone as the fine strong tip can manoeuvre round socks and scrap bone very fast. This is very different to the normal western style butchery knife but if you give it a go you will not regret it.

Molybdenum stainless steels are a general class of Japanese steels that have a higher content of molybdenum than standard stainless steel knives. While all stainless steel knives have 10.5% or more chromium, not all have molybdenum. Molybdenum increases the corrosion resistance of stainless steel, making its use in kitchen knives particularly useful.

Currently our most popular series, the Professional Series features a thin 2.0-2.5mm blade for less wedging into cuts and an added bolster on the handle for weight and balance.  Most of the knives in this series are made with our Original steel with the exception of the MSK-65 and MTH-80 which use the Superior steel. The weight of the bolster in combination with the thin blades makes these knives extremely well balanced in the centre of your hand when using a Chef's grip; allowing you to cut through most foods using minimal effort.  Except for the MTH-80, MSK-65, and MSL-105 which feature elevated handles, these knives have traditional European shapes with a straight handle and pointed tip.
