Marttiini Condor Golden 6 Inch Fillet Fixed Blade Knife

Description

The Marttiini Condor Golden pairs a 6-inch satin stainless fillet blade with a black textured rubber handle, and ships with a black leather belt sheath. Made in Finland.

A fillet blade is ground thin and left flexible on purpose. That flex lets the edge follow the curve of a fish’s ribcage instead of cutting straight through it, which is what separates a fillet knife from a stiff kitchen blade and what keeps more meat on the fillet than on the frame. At 6 inches the blade suits panfish through medium trout and walleye. The rubber handle is the part that matters on a cleaning table: it stays grippable with wet, slimy hands, where a smooth wood or polished handle turns slick.

Marttiini has built fillet knives in Finland since the 1920s, and the leather belt sheath reflects that, meant to hang on a belt at the water rather than live in a tackle tray.
