Hatsukokoro Ginsan Tsuchime 5.9" Honesuki

This is a really great knife and it has never been easier to take apart a chicken. I just wished I had shopped around as I have seen it for as low as $50 and averaging around $110.

Definitely not flimsy. I get worried when I pick out honesukis bc sometimes they're thin for some reason. I don't want them snapping on me during boning!

The ginsan holds an edge amazingly well, easy to sharpen as well. Great weight and thickness on the spine. Overall, great price for the quality of knife!

This is my first knife with the traditional Japanese handle. It felt different at first but I quickly got used to it. The knife is great at deboning poultry and does a decent job of other prep tasks. It’s definitely thicker than my other knives but that doesn’t detract from its performance.

Amazing knife
