Real-world use cases

Filleting larger and smaller fish with clean, uniform portions—whether you’re prepping a fresh catch after a day on the water or portioning fillets for a dinner party. The 22 cm blade lets you follow bone lines neatly, reduce waste, and present professional-looking fillets with minimal effort. It’s equally at home in a home kitchen or on a boat, where reliability and edge retention matter most.

Care and maintenance tips

After use, hand wash and dry promptly to preserve the blade’s finish and edge. Regular honing keeps the edge sharp between sharpenings, and storing in the compatible S4 sheath helps protect the blade when not in use. For best results, use a cutting board that won’t dull the edge, and avoid cutting through bones or frozen prey.
