Processing wild game and breaking down hanging carcasses with a rigid, blunt-nosed outdoor knife often leads to wasted meat, punctured organs, and hand fatigue. Traditional heavy field knives lack the contour-hugging flex required to glide seamlessly along rib cages and bone joints. The Morakniv Hunting Curved Boning (S) solves this by pairing a flexible Swedish stainless steel blade with an upward trailing curve engineered specifically for close-to-bone butchering. Outfitted with a 5.2-inch satin-finished full-flat ground blade, a high-visibility orange ergonomic TPE grip, and an open-drainage polymer sheath, it delivers precision control and minimal meat waste in any field dress or butchering setup.
Built around a 5.20-inch 10C28 recycled Swedish stainless steel curved boning blade hardened to 56.5 HRC, this fixed blade delivers corrosion resistance, edge retention, and easy field maintenance. The steel features a clean satin finish with a 1.85 mm thin profile engineered for flexible, close-to-bone maneuvering. Constructed with a high-visibility handle design, the ergonomic TPE rubber grip is molded over a polypropylene polymer core in burnt signal orange, offering structural integrity and a lightweight 3.60-ounce hand feel.
Engineered for demanding game processing, the flexible trailing curve blade glides smoothly along bone structures, separator seams, and connective tissue without tearing meat. The razor-sharp full-flat grind features an optimized edge angle of 35–37 degrees for precision slicing, while an integrated forward finger guard protects hands in wet or bloody conditions. Extending to an overall length of 10.20 inches, the knife snaps securely into an olive green EasyClean polypropylene polymer sheath equipped with internal drainage channels and an integrated belt clip for ambidextrous carry.
