    Good Boning Knife template

    I really like a good ole victorinox boning knife. I can’t remember exactly what it’s called. Check out the knife the bearded butchers love. It won’t be hard to find if you google “Bearded Butchers knife”. I have one and really like the shape for breaking things down.

    Water Jet Cutting

    Very cool. I’ve looked into it myself but being just a part timer, I never thought I could justify it. It would be nice though to just skip the profiling step. Cutoff wheels are messy, noisy, and not a little dangerous.
