Quick take
A 3 inch stainless steel fixed-blade knife with both fine and serrated edges designed for saltwater fish processing.
The Gerber CrossRiver is a compact fixed-blade knife with a 3-inch full-tang stainless blade that combines a fine edge with a serrated section. Its textured polypropylene handle channels moisture away, and the corrosion-resistant finish suits saltwater trips. The multi-mount sheath with a trigger lock rides on a belt or a PFD, which makes it a handy carry for boat and kayak anglers.
