KAI PRO Boning/Filet Kitchen Knife vs Zwilling Pro 5.5” Flexible Boning Knife

I've had it for just a day at work now but it's made a good impression in that time. First off, this thing is HEAVY for the size and the steel it's made of (AUS6M), while softer than most Japanese stainless, can really take a beating. The balance on it feels very nice, perfect for a pinch grip. It's marketed as an all purpose but I think it favors meat over vegetables- it's a little thick to get perfect thin slices of root veggies or to glide through peppers, although it could be used for that in a pinch

Product is weighted well and holds an edge well. Perfect for processing down large chunks of bone in meet. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

The knife is very sharp and comfortable, but the blade is really thick and stiff which prevents it from doing well for boning. It’s worked well so far for trimming large cuts of beef and pork but is not as adaptable as I was hoping.

Excellent bon-er knife. Holds its edge very well. Nicely balanced. [This review was collected as part of a promotion

I have been using it professionally for a couple of weeks and it is very sharp, light, and fairly comfortable. The handle is nice, with a full tang and riveted scales, however; it is somewhat smooth for a knife with an NSF certification. I would like a more grippy handle personally because I handle a lot of slippery food and my gloved hands get wet when processing, making the handle a little slippery for my gloves. Overall a knife with a sharp edge that holds up under heavy use

One draw back, and perhaps this is a learned preference offered by cheaper knife makers, was the grip surface. I never had any issues with my grip slipping, but I find a mental comfort with a tacky/non-slip handle. In no way was the handle bad or slipping while I used it, just something I noticed.
