Built for Controlled Skinning Work
The 12cm blade length gives this Victorinox skinning knife excellent control for smaller work. It is shorter and more precise than larger skinning knives, making it well suited to poultry, smaller animals, trimming work and detailed preparation where a longer blade may feel excessive.
The American-type skinning profile is designed for practical meat preparation. It allows the user to work around curves, contours and connective tissue with control, helping reduce waste and improve accuracy during skinning and trimming tasks.
Ideal For
- Skinning poultry and small to medium animals
-
Hunters and field meat preparation
-
Butcher shops and meat rooms

Care Advice
Although Victorinox Fibrox knives are generally suitable for dishwasher cleaning, hand washing and drying is the better option if you want to preserve the edge, handle condition and long-term performance. Avoid leaving the knife wet in a sink or storing it loose in a drawer where the cutting edge can be damaged.
Maintain the blade regularly with a quality honing steel or sharpening tool and sharpen properly when the edge begins to lose bite. For professional users, scheduled sharpening will help keep the knife cutting consistently and safely.
