Poultry Knives 

Reliable poultry knives built for precision deboning and breaking down chicken

A poultry knife is an essential tool for butchers, processors and commercial kitchens handling chicken, turkey and other poultry. At Highgate Group, we stock a professional range of boning knives engineered for accuracy, control and safety when working around smaller bones, joints and delicate flesh. Whether your team is deboning chicken thighs, separating wings or breaking poultry into portions, the right knife makes all the difference in speed and consistency.

Our range includes stiff and flexible boning options, narrow blades for precision work and curved designs that slide cleanly along the bone. With trusted brands such as Victorinox, F.Dick, Giesser and Dexter, every knife is crafted for outstanding performance in demanding environments.

Poultry knives designed for maximum control and precision

A boning knife is the most effective tool for processing chicken because the blade is narrow, sharp and shaped to navigate joints cleanly. A curved blade offers a natural glide around bones, while a straight edge can excel when cutting through skin or separating thighs. Victorinox boning knife models remain a popular choice thanks to their balance, edge retention and ergonomic handle designs.

Operators often choose a flexible boning knife for work that requires the blade to follow the natural contours of poultry. This flexibility provides more control, especially when removing meat near the ribs or trimming around the legs. When working with chicken thighs and wings, a stiff blade can give the confidence needed for quick, fine cuts without slipping.

Blade length is also a matter of personal preference. A smaller knife is adept at tight, intricate cuts, while a longer blade makes it easier to slide smoothly under flesh and around joints. Each option in our collection is designed to stay sharp longer, help prevent slipping and give butchers and cooks the precision required for repetitive poultry tasks.

Purpose-built knives for deboning chicken, pork trimming and fish work

While these knives are meant for poultry, many also excel when processing fish, trimming pork or performing detailed work around cartilage and connective tissue. A quality poultry knife allows operators to cut with minimal effort, reducing fatigue and improving output. The point of the blade helps you separate joints cleanly, pinch and slide through tight areas and make clean cuts that reduce waste.

A good grip is essential to avoid trouble during fast-paced processing shifts. The ergonomic handles on our knives offer combined comfort and control, making them ideal for commercial use. Whether you're breaking down large volumes or completing smaller prep tasks, the right handle improves safety and accuracy.

Sharpness is a key factor. Using a dull blade increases risk, slows production and affects yield — sharpening regularly and choosing knives known for durability is important for both safety and cost-efficiency.
