About the Shape - This carbon steel blade is handy for breaking down poultry (joints not bones), skinning animals, slicing meat, and even chopping veggies and herbs! The tall blade doesn't get easily lost in a big head of cabbage or beef primal, while the curved edge is handy for rock-chopping over big piles of parsley. Some folks mistakenly call this a "li'l rhino," but the Chinese name actually translates to "stomach opening knife."
