Shun Shiranami Boning & Fillet

Precision Close to the Bone

The narrow, curved blade is designed for precise boning, trimming, and filleting. It works close to the bone to separate meat, trim silver skin, and handle clean, controlled filleting.

The Prussian blue jute micarta handle offers balance, durability, and a secure grip during meat and fish preparation.

Shun Shiranami Boning & Fillet

A Specialized Knife for Cleaner Yield

A chef's knife is too wide for close work around bones, while a short paring knife lacks the reach and curve needed for smooth filleting. This Shiranami blade is shaped specifically to remove meat, skin, and connective tissue with controlled strokes and less waste.
