A six-inch fillet knife with a hand-ground stainless steel blade, birch handle and leather sheath, plus a sharpener.
This Rapala Fish'n Fillet is a classic 6-inch fillet knife with a tapered stainless steel blade and a varnished birch handle. It comes with a tooled leather sheath and a single-stage sharpener, so you can carry it to the water and touch up the edge between fish. A 6-inch blade suits panfish, trout and small walleye on the cleaning table.
