Amazon.com Review
Designed with advice from actual fishermen, this beautifully-fashioned knife fillets, debones, and skins both larger and smaller fish from the day’s catch. The blade curves into a pointed tip, ideal for slitting a fish along the backbone and separating the fillet from the bones. Its unsurpassed flexibility enables chefs to make one long, clean stroke rather than "saw" through a fillet in a jagged cut.

Part of Wüsthof’s Classic line of cutlery, this knife’s blade is hand-forged from high-carbon steel, so it retains its sharp edge longer and is easier to re-sharpen. The blade is ground and polished by computer to ensure perfect tapering from tip to bolster. A signature feature of Wüsthof knives, a weighted bolster gives this fillet knife the perfect heft. For balance, a full tang extends through a traditional-style, synthetic handle, and is triple-riveted for strength. A stain-resistant alloy keeps the blade clean as long as the knife is hand washed after each use. Wüsthof covers all Classic cutlery with a lifetime warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

Customer Reviews

Excellent knife
My husband (commercial fisherman) has been using this knife for 4 years, it is his favorite fillet knife (he has 10 different fillet knives on board). So we finally bought one for home. Excellent quality, if purchasing, make sure it is the 'Classic' series, they have other series (ie; Emeril) that are not as high quality and are therefore cheaper.

perfect
A carpenter friend once told me "If you're working too hard, you're not using the right tool." I just bought this knife and bought a fish on the way home and put it to use right away. The meat came away from the skin with near perfection (and that was on my first try!) and very little waste. It's the right tool for the job. Tomorrow's mission: a whole chicken.

Best Fillet Knife According To A Pro!
I bought this fillet knife for my brother who is a sponsored salt water angler. He informed me that this is the best fillet knife he has ever owned. Sharp as a razor and passes through bone, skin, and meat with no effort at all.
