DESCRIPTION

The F. DICK ErgoGrip 13cm Boning Knife #82991-13-1 is a professional-grade meat-processing knife featuring a narrow, curved and stiff blade for controlled cutting around bones, joints and connective tissue.

Its 13cm blade is manufactured in Germany from polished X55CrMo14 high-carbon stainless steel. The steel is hardened to approximately 56 HRC, providing a practical balance between edge retention, durability and straightforward resharpening.

The stiff curved blade provides excellent control when deboning and trimming beef, lamb, pork and wild game. Its curved profile helps maintain an efficient cutting angle when working closely around bones, while the narrow blade allows accurate cuts with reduced meat wastage.

F. DICK’s blue ErgoGrip handle is ergonomically shaped for comfortable professional use. A broad thumb rest, textured non-slip surface and pronounced finger guard provide secure handling, including in wet or greasy processing conditions. The seamless blade-to-handle transition also makes the knife easier to clean and helps prevent food residue from accumulating in gaps.

Is the knife dishwasher safe?

Hand washing is strongly recommended. Dishwasher heat, chemicals and contact with other utensils can damage the cutting edge and shorten the knife’s service life.

How should the cutting edge be maintained?

Use a suitable honing steel regularly to realign the edge. When honing no longer restores sharpness, sharpen the knife using an appropriate stone or professional sharpening system.
