When precision meets durability in the field, the TOOR Cardiff Shadow Black stands ready to deliver. Built for the demanding work of processing game and filleting fish, this American-made fixed blade balances tactical aesthetics with surgical control, all wrapped in Toor Knives' unmistakable commitment to craftsmanship.
At the core of the Cardiff is a full 8-inch reinforced Wharncliffe blade, forged from high-performance CPM 154 stainless steel. This steel is a favorite among professionals for its excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness—ideal qualities for any knife you’re trusting in wet, rugged environments. The blade’s elongated, ultra-slim profile makes it a natural for gliding through muscle and sinew with minimal resistance, while the reinforced tip allows for precise, controlled work where other fillet knives might flex or falter.
Finished in Toor’s signature Shadow Black KG Gunkote coating, the blade isn’t just striking—it’s shielded from corrosion, moisture, and abrasion, keeping its low-reflection matte finish sharp-looking and low-profile no matter where the mission takes you. Whether you’re elbows-deep in the backcountry or breaking down the day’s catch dockside, the Cardiff’s blade is more than up to the challenge.
The black G-10 handle offers an equally impressive combination of form and function. Machined for a confident grip and textured for all-weather traction, it’s designed to feel secure in your hand—even when wet, cold, or covered in gloves. The full tang construction ensures maximum strength from tip to tail, while a built-in lanyard slot gives you additional carry or retention options when things get slick or fast-paced.
At 13.25 inches overall and weighing just 7.5 ounces, the Cardiff is light in the hand but long on reach—perfect for detailed cuts along bones and skin while still packing the heft needed for tougher tasks. The included Kydex sheath is form-fitted for safe storage and quick deployment, whether you're carrying it on a belt, pack, or vest.
This isn’t your average fillet knife—it’s a serious tool for those who demand strength and finesse in equal measure. And like every blade from Toor Knives, the Cardiff Shadow Black is proudly made in the USA, with American materials and a fierce dedication to quality.
