For the price, you cannot beat a Dexter Russell Sani-Safe.
If you want a knife in the same price range as the Busse, however, I'd go for a custom.

I know a lot of folks like them. Always looked a little wide to me, but if Bob's other knives are any indication, I'm sure it works very well.

I have used a Rapala for over 30 years and I would probably buy another one if I could find it. It has been a fine razor sharp knife and has filleted a lot of fish.

Phil Wilson custom, but plan on waiting about a year for it. I'm already in line, and it will be worth every second of the wait.

Filet knives are a big help and I'd love to have one but.... this week while I'm out camping etc. I'm going to filet a 9 inch trout with a Fat Warden SE just to piss off Ban:thumbup:
Hahaha.... That is assuming that you can catch them
Remember to take pics if you do try to fillet a trout with a FAT Warden. I am sure it can be done. Just not ideal.

Ban,
I was joking.
The fat warden will not make this trip. All I'm going to bring is the new AD and a leatherman. And from the looks of things I may not have a camera.:grumpy:

Rapala is a fine knife because it's made by Marttiini, a Finnish company that has long made good fillet knives. The rubber-handled Rapala is another great bargain in a fillet knife.

Think an AK would be too big for a trout?
Depends on the trout.

My Rapala is an old one with a varnished wood handle . . . still works great after spending many many moons doing dirty work during the Alaska Salmon Seasons.
