Quick take

A 9.5 inch narrow fillet knife with trailing point blade, designed for cleanly filleting and de-boning large fresh and saltwater fish.

This Kershaw narrow fillet knife has a 9.5-inch 420J2 stainless blade with a trailing point and a plain edge, sized for larger fish like salmon, bass and snapper. The textured co-polymer handle gives a grip when wet, and the included blade protector covers the edge between trips. At about 14.8 inches overall, it suits anglers who clean their own catch.

Best for

  • Filleting salmon, snapper and large bass
  • Working with bigger catches that need precision
  • Saltwater fishing where corrosion resistance matters

Skip if

  • You fish for small panfish where blade length is unnecessary
  • You need a shorter, lighter knife

Strengths

  • Trailing point blade is ideal for de-boning
  • Corrosion-resistant 420J2 steel
  • 9.5 inch length covers most large fish
  • Co-polymer handle stays grippy when wet

Trade-offs

  • Longer blade means less control for small delicate work
  • Heavier than shorter alternatives
  • Requires regular sharpening to maintain edge
