Tsunehisa VG10 Honesuki 150mm – Pakka Wood Handle
The Tsunehisa VG10 Honesuki 150mm is a traditional Japanese boning knife designed for precision. Built with a razor-sharp VG10 core, elegant Damascus cladding, and a compact triangular blade, it excels at breaking down poultry while remaining versatile enough for trimming meat and detailed kitchen work.
Built for Precision
Unlike a Western boning knife, the Honesuki is a rigid Japanese knife specifically designed for separating joints, trimming fat, and breaking down poultry with maximum control.
Its pointed tip allows you to work accurately around bones and joints, while the stiff blade provides excellent precision without unnecessary flex.

- Improved food release
- Reduced sticking during cutting
