Kershaw Clearwater 9-in Fillet Knife (1259X) Fixed 420J2 High-Performance Stainless Steel Blade with Satin Finish, Black Textured Co-Polymer Handle with Neon-Green Detail and Included Sheath; 3.8 OZ

  • 9” fixed blade made of 420J2 stainless steel is resistant to corrosion and includes an ABS sheath with belt holster for safe storage
  • Soft textured, co-polymer rubber grip for a comfortable in-hand feel that won’t slip and neon-green accents for identifying in a marine environment
  • Excellent knife for filleting larger fresh and salt-water fish alike, including tilapia, salmon, snapper, tuna, snapper, carp, eel, bass, catfish and cod
  • Keep handy in boats, tackle boxes, trucks, backpacks, on belts or in the kitchen
  • Softer blade steel is designed to bend without breaking, easily slicing through the body of a fish for the ideal fillet every time

The knife comes sharp and ready for use anytime. It came perfect with a hard case for protection purposes. I now use this knife to fillet any fish bought from the market and it sure does the work much faster and cleaner than the ordinary knives.

Yes, it will lightly rust if sheathed wet and left overnight. The small spots disappeared and stayed gone the day after its first use in the Gulf with near zero effort during post trip gear cleanup the next day. Leave knife out of sheath for both to dry and the rust stays gone. Extremely sharp right out of the package and regaining that exact edge after heavy use takes mere seconds on a diamond whetstone just like the Kershaws I used to carry.

I love Kershaw knives and have always carried them. This filet knife is no different. It's very sharp and has the perfect flex in the blade for cutting fillets. This is my No.1 now!

BUY THIS KNIFE!!! There is no reason to spend 50-$I00 for a fillet knife. bought one of these for filleting Chicken breasts for my restaurant 6 years ago. It is still highly functional but after 6 years of sharping blade size was about 3/4 of original. So I just got another & use the old one as backup. Holds an awesome edge for filleting a 100 breasts at a time. Non slip grip is great. You can't go wrong, KERSHAW BABY!!!

So I got this knife because I was always messing up the skin side on my fish fillets. My dull kitchen knifes just took forever to skin a fish and it looked terrible after I was finished almost like someone took a weed wacker to my fish. Well after I got this fillet knife it was no longer a problem. This knife cuts fish as smooth as butter and its super long so you can cut up just about any size of fillet in one pass.

The Kershaw Fillet Knife with sheath is a good value -- quality, performance and cost. The 9-inch blade is very useful for larger fillets, although for small fillets it requires some care during use. The knife "clicks" into the sheath and stays in-place, even when carried in luggage. The knife maintained its edge and was flexible, steady in the handle with a non-slip grip..

For 12 bucks you can't go wrong. The blade is 9 1/4" long with the perfect amount of flex to filet and skin 15 lb. catfish in two steps. The handle is very ergonomic and has a slightly sticky grip even when wet or oily and has Kershaw engraved on one side and an undecipherable mark with 1259 on the other. The 1" x 2 1/4" belt loop will accommodate a 2" belt easily and is secured with one rivet which allows the sheath to pivot horizontally so both hands can be used to remove the blade in a controlled manner. I say that because the sheath has an interesting design element. There's no cumbersome system to fool with to either secure the knife to the sheath or to remove it. The molded hard plastic sheath has an internal knob that acts as a stop if choose to set the knife in the sheath (while on your belt) for easy removal while working or you can apply a small amount of downward pressure to seat the knife about a half inch further into the sheath which secures the knife very effectively. Removing the blade could be construed as provocative though if you pick the combo up off a table and separate the two as they jump apart due to the force the knob applies to secure the blade. A very affordable and useful tool for any fishing excursion.

I am a HUGE Kershaw fan. I have 4 Kershaw pocket knives and I prefer them to the Buck, Gerber, and CKRT pocket knives that I own. Currently this is my highest quality/best Filet Knife that I own. When shopping I was considering getting a Bubba Blade or Gerber brand filet knife and I am glad I didn't because they were 2-4 times more expensive. I have filayed everything from crappie, to bass, to catfish with this knife and it is super sharp and the rubber grip makes it easy to use. 5 STARS, Highly Recommend this product!!!!

Great brand at a great price. Very sharp and comfortable to use. Just did this batch of trout yesterday and used it for the first time. Better than allot of more expensive knives.

Great knife, used it recently to filet some Pompano, sharp with just the right amount of flex to get the most out of each fish.
