It came with a separate sharpener. I thought it used to be in the sheath?

The ones they sold 35 years ago did. I'm a little bummed but also stoked that i didn't have to buy some made in china nonsense. These are made in Finland and every knife is hand signed!

The Buck brand is now made in China too, bummer because I was going to buy one until I found out.

The best fillet knife is the one that works for you. When I worked in a fish market, each of us had a set of 4-5 different knives we used depending on the kind of fish were were filleting. Long-thin blades for things like halibut, butchers' knives for swordfish, etc. And don't forget a good heavy cleaver for getting through bones of big fish.

Here's a cheap knife that we used a lot. Cheap enough to ruin on mussel shells and not be worried about it.

Speaking of GW's, I was watching a video about a Hobie peddle powered yaks showing the flippers on the bottom. All I could think was how it might be attractive to GW's and other big predators. I'll try to find the video.
