Ideas For 2014

I would love to see a fillet knife with an 8 or 9 inch blade 5 inch handle. For the handles I would want micarta or G-10 left with a slightly rough finish for a nice grip even when your hands are coated in fish slime. I prefer a semi stiff blade over a real flexible one. I would like the blade to be on the wider side upwards to an inch. A nice kydex sheath with some drain holes on the bottom would be nice. Finally for the steel O1 or even a stainless like 154cm would be great. Just my thoughts.

You have described exactly what I have in mind, in sizes from 5" to 8"!

Yes, they all are bad! If G.L.H was alive he would have a good one.

I meant for a different day, I`ve been told nobody has money left on Mondays!
 
John, I have around 10 different fillet knives and although some come close to what I described none of them really fit the bill. I think a combination of a good 5 and an 8 inch blade would cover most of my needs. I think the 8 inch version could be called the Chinook after the mighty king salmon which happens to be my favorite salmon to catch on rod and reel.
