"This knife is amazing! Looking forward to buying more just like it."
Built for the pit, but just as handy in the kitchen. Designed with “King of Backyard BBQ” Bennie Kendrick, the Messermeister Avanta Kendrick BBQ 7” Fillet Knife features a thin, flexible blade that moves effortlessly around bones, joints, and delicate proteins. Crafted from German X50 stainless steel with a sleek black titanium coating, its razor-sharp 15° edge and 80/20 hollow grind deliver clean, precise cuts whether you’re filleting salmon, trimming brisket, deboning poultry, or prepping ribs. Full-tang construction, a solid bolster, and triple-riveted ebony Pakkawood handle provide balance and control. Rugged, sharp, and ready to work, it’s the BBQ and fillet knife built to handle everything from fish to the smoker.
