Victorinox Skinning Knife 15cm American

The Victorinox Skinning Knife 15 cm American Style is built for smooth, controlled skin removal across beef, lamb, pork and game. The pronounced curve and wider blade give strong cutting power while allowing you to guide the knife comfortably through long, sweeping motions.

Made in Switzerland, the stainless steel blade holds a reliable edge and stands up to regular use in commercial and home meat preparation. The textured Fibrox handle provides a sure, non-slip grip — even with wet or gloved hands — helping you maintain safe, confident control during detailed skinning and trimming tasks.

This knife is well suited to shaping meat for retail display, preparing carcases on the farm, cleaning up game animals, and general heavy trimming where a curved, powerful blade provides better movement and efficiency.
