Fishing Knife & Sharpener FAQs

What is a fillet knife used for?

A fish fillet knife is a specialised kitchen tool primarily used for filleting fish. Its thin, flexible blade enables precise cutting along the bones and skin of fish, yielding clean fillets. A fillet knife is essential for removing bones and maximising meat yield from fish. It's also useful for tasks like trimming fat and skinning poultry or other meats with precision.

What angle to sharpen a fillet knife?

To sharpen a fillet knife, aim for a consistent angle of about 15 to 20 degrees. Hold the knife at a steady angle against the sharpening surface, ensuring equal pressure on both sides of the blade. Maintain a steady motion while drawing the knife across the sharpening tool, gradually honing the edge to achieve optimal sharpness for precise filleting.
