Alaska Fillet in S35VN

[iron4022]

This is a new model that I finished up for a good friend at work. She has a friend in Alaska who fishes a lot and needs a large fillet knife of good quality.

Well, I think that 12" of blade and 16" overall should suffice

Model- Alaska Fillet
Steel- S35VN Bos Heat treat at 60 Rc.
Blade length- 12" Overall 16"
Thickness- .070
Handles- SS bolts and tubing
Sheath- kydex slip sheath

Very useful in a pinch grip

Nice and thin! Grinding these can be really fun!

I have one more that is going to get orange handles after I hand sand it. Dan

Thoughts?

That looks really good. I think it would filet one of our Northwest Salmon like a dream. Perhaps Orange scales? Yeah, I like that idea a lot.

Looks nice, Dan.
Seeing your filet knife, it reminds me of George Lambert's "Rocklinizer" treatment. I wonder your impressiom?
