Rapala Fish 'n Fillet Knife, 4 Inch Stainless Steel with Sheath

I've had Rapala filet knives before, and am now getting back into fishing and cleaning my own fish. I received my new Rapala knife today and immediately checked it out! IT is still as good as I remembered! The blade appears to be the same quality steel and the edge is razor sharp right out of the box. The fibnish of the blade is well polished and the knife cuts beautifully. The quality and sharpness of the blade reminds me of my Mora knives. Beautiful! The one I got has a 4 inch blade and is not very flexible. I gues people like a highly flexible blade, but I can't tell much difference in use, so prefer this blade. I prefer knives with either a through tang or a full tang for strength. This is a through tang knife with a brass fastener to hold the handle in place and a copper ferrule. The handle itself is a one piece wood handle and is nicely shaped. The handle has a varnished finish for protection. The knife is intended for slicing cuts and is perfectly designed for that. There are no "frills" on this knife and its design and construction are time-tested so that it is the same as it was 40 or 50 years ago. I'm happy to see that they are not cutting corners on these knives. The sheath is a well-made leather sheath with a plastic insert to keep the blade fully enclosed. The plastic insert will prevent the knife from cutting through the leather of the sheath. A belt loop is attached to the sheath. I'm very happy with this knife!

Knife is sharp and flexible. Fillets small to medium fish nicely. It stays sharp after filleting several messes of fish.

Husband loves this knife. I bought him one before and he left it by accident at one of his favorite fishing spots. He wasn't able to find it when he went back. So as a surprise I bought him another one. He was thrilled. He says it best knife he has ever used for cleaning and filleting.

WOW. great right out of the package. This is my second Rapala filet knife. My first is a six inch which I've owned for a long time. It's always sharp with a little honing. It cuts beautifully and is easy on delicate fish meat. The original happens to be the most durable filet knife I've ever owned. It fits nicely in my hand; the hand friendly grip handle is very nicely contoured for my hand. Judging by the few uses of my new 4-inch Rapala filet knife, I'm sure it will bring me years of trouble-free use as has the six-inch. Once again Rapala has impressed me with its attention to detail, quality construction, great steel and a wonderful value / price in a filet knife.

Great just what I was looking for

Very sharp knife, 4” is good size for pan fish and small trout. The wooden handle looks nice, but gets very slick from fish slime. There’s also an opening at base of blade where it protrudes from handle. A good spot for nastiness to seep in and not get cleaned out.

Real wood, real leather, great value—perfect for backcountry fly fishing.

Nice knife! Very sharp

I bought this as a gift, i have one and use it for deboning, fish or filletting small fish, it's a great little knife If I ever lost it, I would certainly buy one again, easy to sharpen and small enough to fit anywhere.
