Quick take
A 6 inch ultra-thin tapered flex fillet knife designed for precision cuts on small pan fish with minimal meat loss.
A 6-inch tapered fillet knife with an extra-flexible blade, made for small panfish like crappie where careful work along the bones matters. The textured handle has a trigger grip and safety guards, and a synthetic sheath and lanyard hole come with it. Overall length is 11 inches, and the full-tang build keeps the thin blade steady while you work.
Best for
- Small pan fish like crappie and bluegill
- Precision filleting and bone removal

- You want a stiff blade for tough skin
Strengths
