Need suggestions for good boning knife

NibbleMeThis

Ms. NibbleMeThis wants to get me a boning knife for Christmas. I've just used my 8 and 10 inch chefs knives all this time.

Anyone have suggestions for buying a good boning knife? I'll be doing light stuff like breaking down ribeyes, pork loins and such.

Thanks!

I have a 7 1/2" Victorinox given to me by a butcher friend 15 years ago and it is eggcellent for my needs.

For light work and getting in to tight places I use a stiff filet knife like the Rapala. Cheap, take a quick edge, available at most sporting goods/tackle shops

Hey Chris,

Last year I got this one for my wife to give me for Christmas. I highly recommend it. It was a splurge, but I use it a lot.

Made your chicken enchiladas with pinto beans and the homemade red sauce this weekend. Big hit with the family, so thanks.

Thanks everyone! Looks like it is going to be the Forschner.

I'm not going to do a brand recommendation...That has been taken care of, but I will suggest that a shorter knife (5" to 6") should be all that you will need.
With just trimming and slicing a big knife is too hard to control. And....If you truly are going to bone out something, I personally like the small knives.
Just 2 cents worth!!
