This is the perfect fishing knife! This knife has a tapered blade that is perfect for when you are filleting fish that have a lot of bones. This Knife features an extremely sharp high carbon stainless steel blade that will stay sharp longer than other blades. The Teflon coatings make the blade highly corrosion resistant and meat will not stick to it. The handle is constructed of a non-slip synthetic rubber that will stay firmly in your hand even if covered in saltwater bait or fish parts. The trigger grip and finger pads not only give you excellent control but also offer a level of safety that other knives do not have.
