Paul LeBatard Fillet

VCM3 · Feb 15, 2007

I did not know where to post the pictures of this,but I figured the slipjoint guys in here would really appreciate it.It is as Traditional as a fillet knife could be,custom made by Paul LeBatard of Mississippi.It has a 6-1/2" hollow ground ATS-34 blade,satin finished,with a nice little flex at the tip.The green Micarta contoured hanle is 4-7/8" and fits the hand better than any gloves I own.11-1/4" OAL,and his leatherwork is some of the best,the knife sucks right into it's spot,secure,I like that.

Thanks for the comments,this knife is pretty sweet,too.
As I checked it out,looking out at the frozen outdoors,it made me want to go down to the local fish market and buy a couple whole fish,just so I could test it out!

Paul makes fantastic knives, I have several of his fighters, his fit and finish is top of the line. I am sure that you are going to love that knife.

My wife's uncle works with Paul or worked with him, I can't remember. Said he was a real nice guy. I am hopefully going to get a knife from him at the Gulf Coast Knifemakers show in April. Anyway, that one looks really nice.
