Kershaw Folding Fillet Knife
Item #: KE-1258
$27.95
Endorsed by Hall of Fame fisherman Roland Martin, this folding fillet knife is the perfect choice for your tacklebox. The blade is 420J2 stainless steel with just the right amount of flex to make filleting simple. This steel enables the blade to bend without breaking to give you the ideal fillet and it is highly corrosion resistant-always important when you're working around water.
The 6-1/4" fillet blade has a hardness of 49-53 Rc. The handle scales are gray and black glass-filled nylon that have a rubberized overmold for a secure grip. A lanyard hole is located at the butt of the knife. The closed length is 7-1/2". Weighs 4.8 oz. Made in China. Suggested Retail $40.41.

Kershaw Knives
Kershaw Knives was founded in 1974 in Portland, Oregon when knife salesman Pete Kershaw started a cutlery company that would make knives from his designs. Japanese based KAI Cutlery manufactured those designs. In 1978, KAI Cutlery purchased Kershaw Knives and the company, renamed KAI USA Ltd., continues today with three product lines; including the original Kershaw Knives, Zero Tolerance Knives, and Shun Cutlery which primarily markets kitchen cutlery.
Over the years, Kershaw Knives has worked with several custom knifemakers. Cutlery Hall of Famer Ken Onion, a custom knife maker and inventor of the “SpeedSafe” assisted opening mechanism, is the premier knife designer for Kershaw Knives. Kershaw has also collaborated with custom knifemakers Grant and Gavin Hawk, Frank Centofante, and Ernest Emerson. Kershaw has released models that were developed in collaboration with National Geographic, Jeep, Orange County Choppers, the American Professional Rodeo Association, and the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation.
Kershaw manufactures excellent knives and has built a very strong customer fan base due to their innovative designs and their quality control.
