Despite all the wonderful, technologically dazzling, marvelously engineered tactical stuff we've got, it is sometimes hard to find knives for doing such mundane tasks as filleting a fish (just the way you like), or carving a turkey.
We'll go out for TG dinner this evening, but yesterday my wife roasted a turkey anyway. Where else will the turkey soup, turkey sandwiches, turkey salad, and all the other creative turkey applications be fueled from? I got home from work just as the critter was being extracted from the oven. "Can you carve that thing," she suggested, not making it a question.
I've got some fillet knives so I selected a Remington, rubber handle for a good grip even when covered in turkey juice, with a 9" 440A blade which takes a stupendous edge! The turkey was a little small for a blade that long, but the knife was sharp, and it has a good point for getting into tight spots. Aside from the slightly awkward length, that is the best turkey carving knife I've ever used. It would be perfect with a 6" blade. I think I'll get one in that length for future TG turkey disassembling. Has anyone else stumbled onto that use for a fillet knife? It's great.
