WÜSTHOF Classic 7 Inch Fillet Knife with Leather Sheath | Thin 7" Fish Fillet Knife | Precision Forged High-Carbon Stainless Steel German Made Fish Knife – Model

I have been looking for a really good fillet knife for several years. I wish I had the money I spent on all the fillet knives I have purchased. I was always dissatisfied with the edge retention on even some of the higher end brands. I finally decided to go with a battery operated fillet knife and it does a pretty good job. This knife was suggested and I was fore warned that it would NOT be a cheap purchase. I bit the bullet and ordered the knife and went with the custom blade after reading the reviews. When the knife arrived I was pleased with the flexibility and the keen edge and scarey sharp point. I finally managed to clean a few fish after a recent trip and was pleased with the edge retention, I did use a leather strop on the knife prior to use. (I didn't have to stop half way through the filleting process and sharpen it). As I said it is not a cheap purchase and like any good knife does require a minimum of maintenance (i.e do not store it in the a wet leather sheave, clean it thoroughly after use... common sense things) to maintain this high quality knife. I will be going on a Canadian fishing trip this summer and will put the knife through a very vigorous usage. I will update my review after the prolonged "test".

All home chefs should have this knife in their collection. Makes cutting fish, trimming fat, and anything else that's hard to do with your other knives, super easy.

Sharp and holds an edge very well and easy to sharpen. Would buy again if it failed

This is a fantastic filet knife!! I could not be happier. SUPER sharp & makes fileting fresh trout a breeze!!

Very nice for the money. It is very long and thin compared to what I am used to but it is very sharp and well made. The sheath appears​ to be thick so I am not sure I will have the issues others have had of the knife coming through the leather?

Wusfthof is in my opinion still the best. The knife arrived razor sharp, very easy to control and well crafted !

I was reluctant to drop this much money on a knife, but I have a warm fuzzy feeling after using it. Very, very impressed, this thing goes through chicken cutlets like they were soft butter. Cutting out the little white veiny things that gross me out is also taken to a previously unknown level of ease. It makes me feel like a surgeon.The edge wasn't as sharp as it should be out of the box and the edge didn't exactly look like the nice precision sharpening I would expect for an expensive knife from the factory, so that's why I took off a star. Should be more like half a star. I purchased the Wusthof sharpener and gave it some swipes to give it a little more edge, worked great. Strong recommend.

I bought this knife for my son who is training to be a chef. He states that works well just like he wanted. He really likes and uses it a lot.

Prodotto di alta qualità come immaginavo. Spedizione nei tempi.Problema per una non conformità, le foto del coltello sono comprensive del fodero in pelle che invece non è presente. ho contattato il fornitore e mi è stato risposto che amazon non ha cambiato la foto.Non tollero uno scarico di colpe in questo modo, avrei volentieri rimandato il prodotto indietro se non fosse che mi serviva.Andrea

Fantastic knife,it does a great job on filleting fish.This knife is extremely sharp and really holds its sharp edge. They should all come with the leather sheaths to prevent any accidental cuts.

Wer einmal mit einem scharfen Messer gearbeitet hat, will nie wieder zu normaler Küchenschubladenschärfe zurück.Und wer Wüsthof / Dreizack kennt und liebt, dem muss man nicht weiter erzählen.Für alle anderen:Dank geschmiedeter Klinge und durchgehendem Griff sehr gut ausbalanciertes Messer, welches sich hervorragend zum Filettieren und Parieren eignet. Durch die flexible schmale Klinge sind Fleisch und Knochen (oder auch Gräten) leicht und sauber zu trennen.Dabei überzeugt dieses Messer duch ein gutes Handling, die Klinge ist mit 18cm ideal.Und auch bei der Reinigung gibt es kein Stellen, die nicht gut zu erreichen sind.Kurzum - eine Empfehlung.

A perfectly weighted filleting knife with dazzling super sharp blade.

Scharf und liegt gut in der Hand.
