At the heart of the BPX Fillet Knife is uncompromising blade quality. Forged from a single piece of high-carbon German steel, it offers superior strength and durability. The blade is ice-hardened to a Rockwell Hardness of HRC57−58, giving it outstanding edge retention against bone and tissue. Each edge is sharpened to a razor-sharp 15° angle for surgical precision, while the polished finish ensures a smooth glide and effortless food release. The result is a blade that performs flawlessly, cut after cut.
The handle has been engineered with the same attention to detail. Constructed from durable glass-reinforced nylon, its ergonomic design provides a secure, non-slip grip even in wet conditions. Balanced for comfort, it reduces fatigue during long filleting sessions and meets NSF certification standards for professional kitchens. This careful combination of materials and design makes the BPX 7.1" Fillet Knife as dependable in a commercial setting as it is on the shore or at home.
