“Knives appear to be well made, perhaps a tad stiffer than perfect. However the sheath is tight fitting nylon with plastic liner that is tight fitting. I much prefer a hard plastic sheath that allows for air circulation and ease of cleaning—the included sheaths allow for neither. May end up buying new sheaths for the knives.”
“Be extremely careful with this knife! Haven’t had the chance to clean any snapper yet but the knife is of very high Quality and very sharp. Will add more complete review after using a few times. Randy.”
“Cleaned 50 Crappie and it was still super sharp. Hit it lightly with my ceramic sharpener and it was back to scary sharp. Be way careful with these knives, one slip and you will be hurting.”
“Really glad I got this knife it’s perfect for the fish I process/prepare (salmon/steelhead) it cuts very well,right amount of flex,using a boker blade ya can’t go wrong.”
“If you buy Aftco you need to know that they do not stand behind their product. You are buying, what used to be, a good name.I like the knife, just enough flex to get a clean meat from the skin but not so much that it can’t be used elsewhere. The nylon sheath is garbage! Nice to look at the first day but day two it gets a nasty twist that makes it difficult to insert the knife. I have hyperextended it the opposite direction and it held for a day. Yes, I’m bitter about the garbage sheath and I won’t buy another Aftco knife as long as they sell that sheath. Moreover, I would like a new sheath that works sent to me from Aftco but I’m sure they don’t give a tug about it. Many other venders that sell similar products that are willing to stand behind theirs. We will likely be shifting over to them.”
