Misono Molybdenum Steel Hankotsu Boning Knife

Misono Boning Knife - Hankotsu  - 5.9" Blade

Misono is one of the best kitchen knife makers in the world and their Molybdenum Steel Series are their most affordable range of knives. However, the quality and finish of these highly practical and functional knives are equal to that of Misono’s more expensive product lines. Misono’s high standards of quality have not been compromised in the least.

The Paring knife is useful for a variety of commonplace kitchen tasks, but it is primarily used for peeling and accurately shaping fruits and vegetables. Paring knives are particularly useful when cutting small hand held items, which makes them indispensable in the kitchen.

The blade is made from AUS-8 (HRc. 57), a high carbon 13 Chrome Molybdenum stainless steel. The quality and finish of these knives have strong corrosion-resistance, great durability, high cutting performance and are easy to re-sharpen.

This knife features full tang construction, water-resistant black pakkawood (Resin impregnated wood composite) handle scales and stainless steel bolsters for extra durability and improved blade balance.

Hankotsu knife blades are made to be sturdy and tough because their primary function is to separate meat from bones. Traditionally, the Hankotsu is used to butcher hanging carcasses and is held with the blade edge facing downwards in a reverse knife grip. The durable edge and blade of the Hankotsu knife also make it useful for breaking down fish or chicken.
