Buck Knives Enhances Fillet Knives

March 28, 2020

Buck Knives, leader in sports cutlery, recently enhanced the popular Abyss fillet knives by adding a Cerakote® Ridgeway Blue premium coating to the 420HC steel blade.

The Abyss Series of fillet knives incorporates cutting edge technology into a comfortable, ergonomic handle. Utilizing Buck’s Cerakote lab, the 6 ½” and 9 ½” blades are coated with a polymer-ceramic composite coating that provides superior protection against abrasion and corrosion. With the same flexible trailing point blade as the original Abyss fillets, the full tang construction allows you to make efficient and clean cuts. The textured handle is shaped for control and comfort while holding in multiple positions over long periods of time. Each knife comes with an injection molded nylon sheath is covered by Buck’s famous Forever Warranty.

“Our fillet knives were designed with the input of pro anglers working alongside our Engineering Team. These updated fillet knives underwent rigorous testing to check the blades and handles for any signs of oxidation, specifically in saltwater conditions,”said Chris Brooks, Director of Brand Management of Buck Knives. “Our goal was to create a durable knife that could withstand the elements without sacrificing quality and the Abyss series fillet knives are the perfect addition for the tackle box.”

Each knife was proudly made in the USA. MSRP: $70-$80. For more information, contact Buck Knives at 800-326-2825 or visit their website:  www.buckknives.com.
