How to use

Hold the knife firmly by the handle with your dominant hand and stabilize the fish or meat with the other hand. Start at the tail or the appropriate edge and use a smooth, sweeping motion with the flexible blade to follow the bone line, keeping the blade angled to separate flesh from bones and skin. Make light, continuous strokes rather than forcing the blade; the flexibility allows the blade to adapt to contours for cleaner cuts. After use, clean the blade promptly, dry it thoroughly, and store it safely to preserve edge life and hygiene.

Usage recommendations

For best results maintain a sharp edge using appropriate sharpening tools for flexible blades, avoid twisting motions that can damage the blade, and rinse and dry the knife immediately after contact with saltwater or acidic ingredients to prevent corrosion and preserve finish.
