MAC Fillet Knife 18 cm Extra Flexible Blade Professional Series SO-70

This 18 cm Fillet Knife from the MAC Professional Series delivers exceptional precision and impressive flexibility, making it an essential tool for delicate fish preparation and fine slicing. Its ultra-thin, highly flexible blade allows for smooth, accurate cuts, even when working with the most intricate filleting tasks.

Made from AUS-8 high-carbon stainless steel and equipped with a Western-style Pakka wood handle, this knife blends traditional Japanese craftsmanship with ergonomic design and outstanding sharpness.

With an average thickness of less than 1.0mm, this blade can be flexed to nearly a 90-degree angle. Perfect for filleting delicate flatfish such as sole and flounder. Because of the narrow profile and extremely thin blade, this knife is also great for slicing bite-size pieces of sashimi from a ready-to-cut section of sashimi-grade fish.
