The Overland Chef 7" Mid-Flex Fillet Knife is designed for those who demand precision and performance, whether breaking down the day’s catch by the lake or prepping dinner at home. Its mid-flex blade offers the perfect balance—supple enough to glide along bones and skin for delicate fillets, yet firm enough to handle poultry, game, and everyday prep with confidence. Featuring a high point for increased range of motion, it delivers superior maneuverability when working around bones and joints. Forged from premium high-carbon stainless steel, the blade ensures lasting sharpness, while the rugged handle provides a secure grip, even in outdoor conditions. Built for versatility, adventure, and flavor, this knife makes every cut second nature.

Tasks
The thin, sharp, and flexible blade allows you to make precise, clean cuts without wasting meat, ensuring you can fillet, debone, and slice with ease. The flexibility also allows for great maneuverability around bones, skin, and cartilage, giving you total control over the cutting process.
Care
Do not place in dishwasher… Seriously, don’t even think about it!
Hand-wash only with warm water and a mild detergent; rise and dry immediately
Clean the blade right away after slicing acidic or salty foods like tomatoes, citrus and vinegar based items
