Quick take
A 7 inch Japanese stainless filet knife with serrated top edge for cutting bait and a carabiner sheath for travel.
This 7-inch folding fillet knife closes the blade into its own handle, so it packs into a tackle bag or clips to gear with the built-in carabiner. The serrated top edge handles frozen bait while the straight leading edge suits filleting and trimming fish. A titanium-coated stainless blade and ribbed rubber grip are made for wet saltwater work.

Strengths
