Fish, Fillet, & Boning

The blade of a fillet knife is designed to be more flexible than other knives, with a thin, upward curving blade that bends and dips along the cutting surface.

In skillful and practiced hands, a fillet knife is capable of artfully carving precise sections away from fish, chicken, and other bony cuts of meat. While it might take a little practice to get comfortable with, fillet knives are a key instrument to have in any well-prepared kitchen!
