The Kershaw 9-inch Curved Fillet 1242GE is a versatile fillet knife with a 9 inch 420J2 stainless steel trailing point blade, hollow grinds for easy meat release, glass-filled nylon handle with K-Texture rubber grip, and blade protector designed for saltwater and freshwater fish processing.

Overview: Kershaw 9-inch Curved Fillet for Versatile Processing

The Kershaw 9-inch Curved Fillet 1242GE is ideal for most saltwater fish, large freshwater fish, and a variety of game. This knife excels at helping you break down fish and game into more manageable sizes while also handling filleting duties on larger fish. Moreover, the curved blade’s 9 inch length enables you to cut all the way through and gives you the full range of motion needed to make clean cuts. As a result, the knife is great for processing wild fish and game, though many chefs also choose this versatile breaking knife for processing meat in their own kitchens.

The 420J2 stainless steel blade offers excellent corrosion resistance and toughness, with just the right amount of flex to make filleting easier. The blade re-sharpens easily when needed for extended use in marine environments. In addition, hollow grinds in the blade help meat release from the knife more easily during processing. Furthermore, the durable glass-filled nylon handle with rubberized K-Texture grip overmold ensures a secure grip even in slippery conditions when handling wet fish. For those needing an even larger fillet knife for bigger catches, consider the Kershaw 12-inch Curved Fillet 1241.

Features: Corrosion-Resistant Steel with Hollow Grinds

The 420J2 stainless steel delivers the perfect balance of corrosion resistance, toughness, and flexibility for professional-grade filleting performance. Furthermore, the trailing point blade style with curve creates maximum cutting surface and precise control when working along bones and through fish. The hollow grinds reduce friction and help prevent meat from sticking to the blade during extended processing sessions. Because of this thoughtful design, the Kershaw 9-inch Curved Fillet 1242GE has become a favorite for versatile fish and game processing.

The K-Texture rubberized grip ensures hand security even when your hands and the knife handle are covered in fish slime or water. In addition, at 5.2 ounces without the protector, the knife provides substantial cutting capability while remaining light enough for extended filleting sessions. The included blade protector keeps the knife safe during storage and transport in your tackle box or kitchen drawer.
