What is this fishing knife used for?
This is a fillet knife made for fishing. Its slim, flexible 7-inch blade removes skin and bones from fish, lifting clean fillets off the rib cage with minimal waste. It's ideal for panfish and medium-sized catches where control matters.
Is the blade flexible?
Yes. The 7-inch blade is slim and flexible, which is the defining feature of a true fillet knife.
Why is the handle made of micarta?
Micarta is a tough, water-resistant composite that grips securely even when wet, which makes it ideal for a fishing knife that handles slippery fish.
What steel is this fishing knife made from?
The blade is forged from layered 1095 and 15N20 high-carbon Damascus steel, tempered to 56 to 58 HRC.
Does the Damascus blade rust around water?
High-carbon Damascus can rust if left wet, so rinse and dry the blade after each use and apply a light coat of food-safe oil before storage.
What size is this fillet knife?
It has a 7-inch blade and a 12-inch overall length, with a 5-inch handle.
Is this fishing knife full tang?
Yes. The steel runs the full length of the handle for strength and balance, with no weak rat-tail tang.
Can I use it in the kitchen too?
Yes. The thin flexible blade works well for filleting fish, boning, and other delicate kitchen tasks.
Does it come with a sheath?
Yes. It includes a handmade cowhide leather sheath, fitted to protect the slim blade.
Is this a handmade knife?
Yes. Every Malika fillet knife is forged, ground, and finished by hand by Naqash and Younas Minhas in Casper, Wyoming.
