N690 Boning Kitchen Knife Blank (N690BONING)

N690 Boning Kitchen Knife Blank

A boning blade is narrow and stiff for a reason. It follows bone and separates seams without the width that would fight you inside a joint.

Böhler N690 is the workhorse stainless of the knife world. Cobalt and vanadium give it fine grain and genuine edge retention, while 17% chromium keeps corrosion at bay in a wet kitchen.

The steel comes straight from Voestalpine. Profiling and grinding happen on our benches; hardening and tempering go back to the mill, where the heat treat is done to spec rather than by eye.
