Folding fillet knife?

[walleyvoyager]

I ran into a guy on vermilion this fall that had a folding fillet knife. I can't remember where he said he got it or the brand?? Does anyone have any information about this knife?

Looks like a good BWCA/portable knife.

Yeah I just picked two up down at Joe's on Rice St. 9.99 on sale. It was made by Berkley. Looks good haven't taken it out of the package yet. For the price it's worth a shot. I bought it so it can be put into my tackle box, and the other for my dad's stocking stuffer. It's on sale all weekend if anyone is interested. 6 inch knife

Rapala makes a good one that I have been using for a few years now. Works great. As with all Rapals knives,keep it sharp, if it gets to dull it can be very hard to get a good edge on it again!

Chicago Cutlery used to make a great folding fillet knife but they are hard to find now!

I have a Kershaw folding fillet knife Got it from Amazon for $18. Super sharp, but a bit too stiff for my liking.

Last year for my birthday my wife bought me the Buck brand and it is ok for a pack knife, the biggest problem that I have is that the blade has little flex which I do not care for. Good Luck with your purchase.

Havalon Baracuta-Z hands down! I have both the regular sized one for hunting that has a short stockier blade as well as the fillet knife and they are seriously surgical level blades that you can interchange instead of having to try to sharpen. The knives come with some extra blades out of the package and you can purchase replacement blades for fairly inexpensive. They will zip right through anything! Seriously the best and sharpest knife I have ever used. Scheels carries them as well as you can order them from the Havalon web site.

I had a rapala one that I used on a pile of trips before the blade finally just crumbled in the middle. There was a good chuck of it missing and it became unusable. I now have an outdoor's edge one that I am going to put the wringer. We will see how it holds up. So far so good. I think they are like $18 bucks or so.

Benchmade makes one that is very sharp and has the perfect amount of flex. Picked one up for a friend a couple years ago for a birthday gift, wish I would have gotten one for myself. I have also used the chicago cultery one and they are nice but no longer made and can be expensive if you find a used one. If you get a folder make sure it locks open, I will not use a non-locking folder.
