Filleting Knives

[KeithB]

Normally get Victorinox Boning knives from Caleys on the Quay but it's not easy catching them open if you work full time and fish on Saturdays so I had a search online.

Found this site which seem a good price if anyone needs one:

6" BONING KNIFE EXTRA NARROW - BLACK from Scobies Direct

I ordered 7 which gives a better price and free delivery.

good name , you can get fladen for half the price at boyes, but not sure of the quality. I got mine from tacklebargains.co.uk.They have a good selection. I also bought a sharpener from Asda online called "Anysharps" which is very good and really puts an edge on the knife.

you must have bought the last of them sold out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ha ha

 

[KeithB]

I know I ordered and paid for 7 and they've only dispatched 6

 

[waco]

can any one recomend a knife sharpener that really is good, as a i am crap at getting edge on knife,

 

[KeithB]

I got one of these at Caleys:

But I find it can take chunks out of the blade.

I think a good steel maybe the answer but I assume there's a technique to using one.

Gary(g-force) on here gave me some great advice last year. We weren't confident using a stone and the sharpeners we tried were no good either, or maybe we were no good! He suggested a water wheel sharpener from here:

It's working a treat for us!

You'll have to report on how the knives do after Shadys next catch.

Knives are spot on Graham, John the filleter (RIP) used them for years, not sure if all my fingers will escape intact though.
