This knife made butchering venison so easy. Cuts clean and is the perfect length/shape. Great knife all-around.

Quality product is exactly what I needed. Although it is funny that the steel is forged in Germany but it’s still made in China. Oh well what isn’t these days…

This knife was sharp out of the box, but it had some burrs on the blade that a honing rod easily took off. It stayed very sharp throughout the trimming process and I like the feel and balance of it. Overall, it is a quality knife and perfect for the home butcher.

The knife is super sharp and easy to use. There is a protective cap on the tip, but I feel using that would be more likely to potentially cause an accident so I bought a knife sleeve for it. The weight feels good in your hand and makes it easy to manover around bones and trip fat off meat.

A bit over 2 years since buying this, and I noticed that the handle is cracked in a few places. I chose it because of the Henckels brand and expected it to last a lifetime of an amateur cook. Never been dropped, never washed in a dishwasher. Never piled into a drawer. We'll see how much longer the handle holds up.

Knife was sharp right out of the package. Good size and weight. Feels good in my hand. I can't speak to longevity as it is a recent purchase, but so far I am very pleased.

I have all Wusthof knives and I love them. But, I don't use a boning knife that much, and I hated to spend the money to get my usual brand. I purchased the Henckel knowing it was a descent brand and would probably work fine. I was surprised at the quality of the knife I received. It really does a nice job and fits my hand perfectly. It's heavy and solid and definitely built for deboning anything. I'm very pleased.

I've recently been searching for a good cutlet knife for preparation of beef and chicken, which I make quite a bit for my family meals. The Henckels Forged Premio 5.5 inch boning knife does the job inexpensively and with little flourish. The full tang forged blade on this knife is slim, relatively thin and flexible but strong - as a boning knife should be. The handle is VERY comfortable to hold and solidly built. This is not a "show knife". With its dull satin finish on the blade and handle, the look is much more "working kitchen tool". That's what it is and it does the job I need it to do just fine.The knife arrived in very cheesy plastic packaging - no money wasted there - but was reasonably sharp and immediately useful. Made in China of an unspecified "German Steel" that is not super hard and with a relatively linear blade, I was able to hone it to a nice edge in short order with just a few careful swipes of a honing rod. Sharpening ease is important - because all kitchen knives that are used a lot need to be periodically sharpened, no matter the steel hardness.For comparison, I've tried two other knives. The first was an AUS10 Japanese "Damascus Steel" knife with a curved blade, also made in China, at 2x the price. It's a beautiful looking and substantial knife with an excellent finish, but unfortunately came dull right out of the box and is hard (for me) to sharpen due to the curve (and perhaps high steel hardness). It was not as capable as the Henckels in actual use. The second knife is a genuine VG10 Damascus steel Japanese utility knife that is wonderfully balanced and light and so sharp it can cur though just about anything in one smooth, light motion, just like a scalpel, at 4x the price. A wonderful and beautiful instrument, but fragile. I will never try sharpening the Japanese knife myself or hand it to others - it looks EASY to chip or break. So I'll be carefully taking it out and enjoying it myself while quietly cooking.The Henckels knife, on the other hand, I just dropped into my knife block to be used - by everybody, including me, all the time. Because it can do the job, take a beating, be sharpened easily and is not overly expensive if it does break. As I said - a solid "Working Knife". In this class it merits five (5) stars, IMO.

I thought the price was reasonable too for Henckels.
