Definição e Significado de "fish knife"

What is a "fish knife"?

A fish knife is a specialized utensil used for eating fish, particularly in formal dining settings. It typically has a long, narrow blade with a dull edge and a pointed tip, designed to easily separate the flesh of the fish from the bones. Fish knives often have a unique shape or design, with a slightly curved or tapered blade for precise cutting and filleting of fish. The blade may also have serrations or a scalloped edge to aid in cutting through the delicate flesh without tearing it. Fish knives are typically paired with fish forks as part of a fish service set and are used to gracefully and effectively enjoy fish dishes without disturbing the bones or delicate meat.
