Thanks for info, The victorinox 6" boning knife with extra narrow blade looks a good choice for venison.

I go to a place called Mc Donnells on Queen Street Dublin 7-they supply the trade and are probably the cheapest but still expect to a few quid. i agree about Victorinox knives they are the best ones i have used their number is 01-6778123.

I really like the Mora craftline flexi knife as a short boner/filleter, available from Heinnies.

My latest purchase is a little longer and more pricey, but laminated VG10 steel! Fallkniven F2z.



Fallkie. have several knives that fit the bill.

You can also get the Victorinox, Swibo or Dick boners from Nisbets. This style of thing, little flex to the blade for working around bones.

I bought three of the Mora Craftline's, £14 each, and use one at home and one at my sister's as paring knives. The other goes in my bag if I'm out shooting rabbits or fishing, stainless steel so easy to care for and very sharp.

Going to order the Victorinox 5in straight narrow blade boning knife and was also thinking of placing a order for a steel, would the 12in oval fine course steel work best for this blade, thanks.

5" blade 12" steel sounds ok.

I have a very long steel that a Butcher friend gave me.
My only fear is of cutting myself while sharpening.
Harder to do the longer the steel.
Not used an Oval steel so I'd be interested in hearing reports. The steel I have is a round type.
It has sharpened all my knives, but to get them Victorinox factory sharp is an art form thread Deise Mise has a thread on

I can't shave "yet" with any of my sharpened knives

An oval steel lessens the pressure you apply to your blade, a light touch can do the same, but I do like oval steels

A steel is used to straighten your edge, sharpening can be delayed by regular steeling, but eventually the knife has to be sharpened.

Some steels like my Diamond coated Fallkniven are sharpening steels, but overuse will prematurely wear out your knife.
A nice option is a rod out of a hydraulic ram, shiny case hardened steel and very smooth.
Use a coarse steel to sharpen and the stainless rod for regular straightening.
Should take no more than two or three stokes on a steel to refresh your edge.

Cheers lad! Thread can be found by searching under my name or "Sharpen your knives" in the hunting forum.

Just takes a little practice and a light hand lad, I'm sure you'll get there!

You can always send it to me if you want, did an older Spyderco Delica a few weeks ago and it just wiped hair from my shin

Arms are too baldy for testing edges lately!

Thanks Lads for the great info, Many moons ago i spent a little time working at same table as boners trimming the different cuts for beef, from memory the knife i used was 5in stiff blade would the flexible angled blade in comparisson to a stiff straight blade be more suitable for deboning and working with venison.

I find the flexi blade a lot easier for boning out the backstrap off the spine...
Also good for boning out the thigh for a boneless roast...
Also a good cleaver and a 10-12 inch steak knife is pretty much all ya need...
A good saw aswell..
