Beyond pork, the JHS is also ideal for beef and lamb trimming, fish skinning, and poultry applications such as removing chicken breast skin and trimming turkey membranes. Its precision and versatility make it an essential tool for meat, poultry, and seafood processors requiring controlled, consistent results.
 
Built for durability and operator comfort, the JHS offers four selectable cutting depths (1/16", 1/8", 3/16", and 1/4"), enabling uniform removal of skin and fat without cuts or gashes. With its adjustable 360° rotating handle and lightweight construction, it provides effortless maneuverability while ensuring maximum productivity and hygiene in all trimming applications.
