The 18 cm filleting knife is a professional kitchen knife designed for filleting fish and meat: separating fillets from the bone, gliding under the skin and trimming cuts precisely, with minimal waste.

Its defining feature is the long, narrow and flexible blade: the flex lets the blade follow the contour of the bone and skeleton, sliding along it to produce clean, even fillets. The 18 cm length provides a continuous cutting stroke, ideal for medium-sized fish and for working in a single pass.

• Blade length: 18 cm
• Type: filleting knife (flexible blade)
• Use: filleting fish and meat, trimming

To keep cutting performance at its best, the edge should be honed regularly with a steel or stone; once the blade is worn, chipped or no longer takes a proper edge, the knife should be replaced to ensure clean cuts and safety in the kitchen.
