 Up to the task 2010-03-18 |
| By Gadget Geek |
The Tom Douglas 5-inch Stainless-steel Boning Knife is a finely made piece of kitchen hardware. The knife consists of a 5-inch stainless-steel blade with about a 3-inch rubberized handle. The knife has a nice balance -- it is light enough to work with quickly, yet heavy enough to feel sturdy in your hand and be capable of slicing through some meat. The blade itself is pretty sharp, as one would expect with a new knife out of the box. The rubberized handle makes the knife easy to grip without fear of it it slipping out of your hand.
As the product name suggests, this is a boning knife, not a paring or butchers knife. For the purposes of deboning chicken, slicing through some steak, etc., this knife is up to the task and slices it with ease. More often than not, I usually use this knife to debone chicken. I've been using the knife for about two months now and have seen no signs of wear, and still slices as well as when I first received it.
In terms of durability, it has held up well so far, but I question whether it will be able to last as long as my Cutco and JA Henckels sets. The blade does not run through the handle which, from my research, may make it easier for the blade to break off from the handle. Thankfully this has not happened to me yet, but its better to be safe than sorry.
This knife works well, and is moderately priced. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a starter boning knife. If you plan to keep your knives for quite some time, I would recommend checking out Cutco's knives.
5 stars for performance so far, 4 stars for my perception of durability. |
 Great buy for a boning knife 2010-03-18 |
| By Pete Chen (East Bay, CA) |
| I own a quite expensive knife set by J.A. Henckels and am pretty happy with it. I tried to compare this knife to the boning knife I have. I found that this knife to be a very solid competitor in terms of quality and price. The rubber handle gives a very good handle of the knife. The weight is well balanced and just about right. I don't like a light knife. I do need certain weight to bone chickens or steaks. On the other hand, it is not too heavy like some chef knifes I tried before. It is just about right. The only thing I don't like compared with my J.A. Henckels knife is this knife doesn't look as nice. It doesn't look expensive. But you buy this knife to bone chickens, not to display in kitchen. This is a very practical knife and reasonably priced. I strongly recommend it. |
| A fine knife for many uses 2010-02-25 |
| By Jonathan Strawn (Albuquerque, NM) |
I'll admit that I don't have occasion to use a "boning knife" for it's eponymous purpose. I rarely remove bones from meat, although I did prepare a steak using this knife and found it to be quite satisfactory for removing the bone and fat. I've been using this as a sort of all purpose meat knife, trimming meat, filleting chicken breasts, etc. For these purposes it has been great, making easy, clean cuts without any fuss.
The balance of the knife is almost perfect, and I can hold it on a single finger easily. The rubber handle has a nice weight and grip, and I've never slipped or pulled accidentally using the knife. The tapered rise in the blade as it approaches the handle makes honing the knife before use easy, unlike some knives that have a hard edge that likes to catch during honing.
All in all, I can't be happier with this knife and it will have a place of use in my kitchen for years to come. |
| So this is what a quality knife looks like 2010-02-25 |
| By R. Suarez Giacoman (Mc Allen, Texas United States) |
We have used "average" kitchen knifes since I can remember, never a fancy knife like this one. We decided we would give this one a try based on all the recommendations from Amazon.
First of all, the quality can be seen even before opening it. The rubber handle is firm and rigged, so it is quite easy to hold firm when using it; I read someone was complaining about the handle not being ergonomic, while I understand the point it is not necessarily true in my opinion as you can firmly hold it without any problems.
The blade may eventually need to be sharpened but out of the box it cuts like a charm. We have used it to cut chicken and vegetables and have not had any problems like we normally do with our regular knives.
Comfortable to use, sharp and light, this knife is worth the upgrade!

| Super sharp, lightweight knife 2010-02-12 |
| By Janet Perry (Napa, CA) |
I must admit, I don't use boning knives for boning, instead, for 30 years a boning knife has been my "go to" knife for most kitchen jobs. You see, I'm short and my hands aren't strong, so I find the lighter weight and narrower blade of a boning knife just perfect for me. Far better than wider and longer chef's knives, I like the flexibility here for so many jobs.
This knife doesn't disappoint. The rubber handle provides a sure, firm grip. The offset blade makes cutting awkwardly shaped items a breeze, and is perfect for boning. Its light weight makes lengthy kitchen tasks less tiring and its sharpness makes them a breeze.
I've tried, and own, many knives, some quite expensive, but this is the first one that will be able to replace that old boning knife I bought in 1980. |
