Red Wood Handle

This is the surgeon of the kitchen. The 7-inch Fillet Knife features a thin, flexible blade designed to glide along bones and under skin with zero resistance. Whether you are filleting a whole snapper, deboning a chicken breast, or trimming silverskin from a tenderloin, this is the tool for the job.

Flexible Precision

A rigid knife struggles with curves, but this blade bends to follow the natural contours of your protein. The sharp, pointed tip allows you to work in tight spaces, ensuring you get the maximum amount of meat with minimum waste. It turns a difficult, messy task into a smooth, clean process.

Classic Comfort, Perfect Balance

Precision requires control. This blade is crafted from classic German 1.4116 (X50CrMoV15) stainless steel, known for its extreme corrosion resistance—essential when working with wet fish or poultry. The full-tang construction provides a solid, steady feel in the hand. The classic red wood handle is secured with stainless steel rivets, offering a secure grip even when things get slippery.

The Supreme Series is Xinzuo's workhorse stainless line — honest tools at an honest price. This 7-inch fillet knife is the specialist of the range: a thin, flexible blade ground to 15±1° per side that bends just enough to ride the rib cage and slide under skin. German 1.4116 monosteel takes a fine edge and shrugs off saltwater. Full tang, red wood handle, hand wash only.

Why Flex Matters

Less Waste, Cleaner Fillets

A rigid blade fights the fish. This one flexes — the 2.2mm spine and slim 185mm blade follow the natural curve of the rib cage and lay flat against the skin, so you take the flesh and leave the bones. The 15±1° per-side edge releases cleanly through delicate flesh without tearing. Whether you're skinning a snapper or trimming pin bones, the blade does the steering.

The Steel

German 1.4116 Stainless

Forged from German 1.4116 (X50CrMoV15) — a molybdenum-vanadium stainless prized for corrosion resistance, which matters when you're cleaning fish near saltwater. Vacuum heat treated to 56-58 HRC: soft enough to re-hone quickly on a steel between fish, hard enough to hold a working edge through the session. Solid monosteel, not Damascus — no decorative cladding, just a dependable stainless fillet blade.

FAQs

Is this blade flexible enough for filleting?

Yes. It's a flexible fillet blade — slightly bendable so it follows the contours of fish and rides the rib cage. It bends to follow the bone but is not designed to be bent strongly.

Is this a Damascus knife?

No. It's solid German 1.4116 monosteel with no cladding or Damascus layers. The strength here is corrosion resistance and a clean, easy-to-maintain edge, not a decorative pattern.

What steel is it and will it rust near saltwater?

German 1.4116 (X50CrMoV15), a molybdenum-vanadium stainless chosen for corrosion resistance. It stands up well to fish and saltwater, but always rinse and dry it after use — hand wash only.

How hard is the edge?

56-58 HRC, vacuum heat treated. That's a practical working hardness — it holds a usable edge through a session and re-hones quickly on a steel between fish.

How long is the blade?

185mm — that's 7.3 inches measured, sold as a nominal 7-inch fillet knife. The slim profile is ideal for skinning and following pin bones.

Can I put it in the dishwasher?

No. Hand wash only, then dry. Dishwasher detergents and heat damage both the edge and the red wood handle.

Does it come with a sheath?

The knife ships in a premium gift box. A matching sheath and blade engraving are available as optional paid add-ons.
