I have a couple of those Mora curved boning knives and they seem to work well...

The same bloke is responsible for sharpening all my knives....so unsurprisingly they all seem to cut much of a muchness... :)

Nothing to remark about the difference between the handles of those or the Victorinox one I have.

I was a butcher and boner for years. Dick and Victorinox are great knives. But I used Swibo as it is a harder steel, but they are very hard to sharpen .
Green River will take a great edge and are easier to sharpen.
 
We had Sabattia (spelling?) knives when I was training as a chef the restaurant used Swibo. Both good knives prepared plenty of sirloins etc boned out and cut up. However for years I have done most of my butchering with a 5” curved flexible Victorinox boning knife, I keep meaning to get a steak knife too but haven’t got round to it.
I have a decent carbon steel very sharp cleaver, a saw, a the boning knife a couple of steels (corse and a med/smooth one).
I have a mate who worked for Peter Boddy for a number of years, he gave me my first Victorinox knife (he buys them by the box) they lardered a lot of deer. So I know that it does the job and will last a reasonable length of time.

Lots of good suggestions here but Check out cutting edge services

Ive been in the trade more years than I care to share and have in the last 12months moved all my knife and steel sourcing to them as they offer the major brands and cheaper prices (f dick multicut steel £30 cheaper than anyone else) with great customer services.

I personally am not a victorinox fan...I don’t like their blade profiles or handles (exception for their steak knifes)

F. Dick are great and I recommend their flexi range

I am currently trialing Caribou knives from cutting edge. Fully flex 5” boning knives at the £5 mark and they are very good!

All available online and I have no affiliation other than being a happy customer

There are certainly some pretty expensive knife rolls out there!

Dalstrong - Vagabond Knife Roll Full & Top Grain Brazilian Leather Roll Bag - 16 Slots - Interior and Rear Zippered Pockets - Blade Travel Storage/Case (California Brown) - Large - Up to 20" Knives: Amazon.co.uk: Kitchen & Home

In the larder I keep all my knives in a stainless wall rack - it lets them drain after washing, protects them, and they’re easy to grab when needed. It’s similar to this, but mine holds about 7 knives:

!! Remember when you did those first few, gralloch, hide off and butcher, all with just one knife?

Still use that first knife of mine, very well worn but sharp and now kept as a butchering knife!

Still use the Mora for gralloching occasionally, but I’ve always had at least a boning knife and skinning knife in the larder - in my case the latter is a Buck Skinner - as that was what I was taught to use from the start. Still use both to this day. The other knives just help to make life easier.

I use a flexible curved boning knife for most things. I even cut veg with it.
I did a cow with it a saw and a cleaver. Ok not necessarily the neatest job but it tasted ok
 
Look on Nisbetts web site. I use Victorinox and Dick. Both in wooden and fibrox handles. Victorinox 5.5500.18 is an excellent knife. Swibo are also good.
