Boning Knife
Widely used in food preparation for easily removing the bones of poultry, meat, and fish, the boning knife is a kitchen knife that features a sharp point and a narrow flexible blade. With its finely honed blade with a Granton Edge, the Spectre Boning Knife allows for a single-pass cut in removing fish from its flesh and can surgically remove the fat and meat off of bones to preserve every molecule of flavor.
The Spectre Series
Japanese AUS-8 steel blades meet the standard of a tough, rust-resistant knife with a significantly long lasting razor-sharp edge. Carbon and Molybdenum explains its rigidity and high wear resistance, Chromium and Nickel increases mechanical strength and edge retention, and Manganese helps increase hardness, reduce structural wear, and makes for easy sharpening. Put that all together, add our heat-treatment and nitrogen cooling process to ensure durability, sharpness, and abrasion resistance, and you have yourself a new culinary life companion.
Adorned with a mosaic pin made of brass and copper, the mirror-polish pakkawood handles have a traditional Japanese D-Shape that tucks right into the palm for unrivaled comfort and control for both righties and lefties. Pakkawood is exceptionally dense, possess incredible strength, won't crack or split, and has high water-resistant capabilities with easy maintenance. This is why its often used in both military and kitchen environments.

They have a Rockwell Hardness (HRC) of 58, providing maximum strength, flexibility, & blade edge durability. AUS-8 steel also incorporates vanadium, which further improves the blade’s durability and edge retention.

Pakkawood is used for both military and kitchen applications due to its incredible strength and exceptional density. It is nearly impervious to heat, cold, and moisture. The handle has full tang strength, which means the blade extends all the way through the entire handle, for lifelong durability and safety.
