Quick take
A 7 inch fillet knife with a floating foam handle designed to stay afloat if dropped in water, with a quick-drying polypropylene sheath.
This 7-inch Swiss+Tech fillet knife has a curved, flexible 425M steel blade for following the contour of a fish when boning and filleting. The foam handle floats if it slips overboard, and its shape is meant to keep a grip when wet. A vented polypropylene sheath drains and dries quickly, making it an easy knife to carry to the water or the cleaning table.
