{"product_id":"w-sthof-gourmet-boning-knife-black-14cm","title":"Wüsthof Gourmet Boning Knife 14cm Black Handle","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Wüsthof Gourmet Boning Knife is a 14cm straight-bladed boning knife designed for precision butchery and meat preparation work in professional kitchens. The blade is laser-cut from stainless steel and ground to a fine, narrow profile that allows close work around bones, joints, and cartilage — tasks that require control and accuracy rather than brute force.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn day-to-day kitchen use, the Gourmet range sits in a practical middle ground: lighter than a forged knife, but with enough rigidity for repetitive portioning work during prep service. The narrow blade profile gives good visibility of the cut line, which matters when breaking down whole joints or filleting larger cuts to consistent portion weights. The balance point sits slightly forward of the bolster, which suits a pinch grip and reduces hand fatigue during extended prep shifts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe triple-riveted black handle is made from a hard-wearing synthetic material that is dishwasher safe — a practical consideration in kitchens where knives go through a regular machine wash cycle. The handle's shape is well suited to a range of hand sizes and grip styles without requiring any adaptation period.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA few things worth considering: this is a mid-range production knife, not a hand-forged blade. It will hold a working edge well with regular honing, but it is not equivalent in edge retention to a full-forged Wüsthof line. For kitchens processing large volumes of whole carcasses daily, a heavier forged boning knife may be a better long-term investment. For general prep kitchens, catering colleges, or as a reliable secondary knife, the Gourmet is a sound, practical choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you're equipping a prep section and want to discuss the right knife specification for your volume and workflow, we're happy to help.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wusthof","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58198413017470,"sku":"FE197","price":35.69,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1753\/9017\/files\/fe197_upd25-03.jpg?v=1791819896","url":"https:\/\/www.advantage-catering-equipment.co.uk\/products\/w-sthof-gourmet-boning-knife-black-14cm","provider":"Advantage Catering Equipment","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
