MAC Fillet Knife

The blade is exceptionally thin—measuring under 1.0mm—and is engineered to bend nearly 90 degrees. This extreme flexibility allows it to glide along the bones of delicate fish like sole and flounder with minimal resistance.

While it is specifically designed for filleting and skinning delicate fish, its narrow profile and sharp edge make it an excellent tool for slicing sashimi into precise, bite-sized portions. It is not intended for heavy-duty tasks or cutting through bones.

No, this knife is not dishwasher safe. To maintain the integrity of the high-carbon stainless steel and the precision of the thin edge, you should always hand wash and dry it immediately after use.

Because it is made from high-carbon stainless steel with a Rockwell hardness of 59-61, it holds a very sharp edge but requires careful handling. Keep it clean and dry to prevent rust, and use a honing rod or whetstone periodically to maintain its professional-grade performance.

Yes, this knife is backed by a 25-year warranty. This covers manufacturing defects, reflecting the brand's commitment to the quality of their Japanese-made cutlery.
