Shun Classic 6-Inch Boning & Fillet Knife

Shun Classic 6-Inch Boning & Fillet Knife is a focused tool for trimming meat and separating flesh from bones. Work around the structure of the joint or fish with short, visible cuts, using the tip for detail rather than forcing the edge through hard material.

At a glance

• Trimming around bones

  The narrow working profile is useful for removing connective tissue and following contours during meat preparation.

• 6-inch blade

  This 6-inch format helps define the working reach. Match it to your usual ingredients and leave room for the cutting stroke.

• Patterned blade

  Layered Damascus cladding gives the blade its flowing pattern.

• D-shaped Pakkawood

  The resin-treated wood handle has a D-shaped cross-section, a distinctive feature of the Classic family.

Find your fit

Choose a boning or fillet knife for controlled trimming. Blade flexibility varies between models; a boning label alone does not make a knife suitable for cutting bones. Read our poultry and boning knife guide for practical comparisons.

Care and storage

Wash by hand with mild detergent, then towel-dry the blade and handle before putting the knife away. Keep the edge protected in a suitable block, tray or guard. See our knife-care guide for a practical routine.
