Fish Knives by Tobias Gibson on June 17, 2013

I'm not sure if there is a discussion already or not but show 'em if you got 'em. Let's see you fishing knives, as in the tools of the tackle box! (Folding, fixed, multi-tools, etc.)

Here's a few of my latest finds. What made them interesting is the bale.

Above knife is made by Sabre (Japan) It features yellow comp handles and is just over 5 inches closed. Below is another Japanese made knife. It features the infamous "cracked Ice" plastic pearl handles. I couldn't pass it up for $9 simply because of the scissors and the bale. It is 4 inches closed.

Both knives in a side by side comparison

Very nice, Charles! Aside from Richards I've only seen one or two other companies who put a fish a scaler on a trapper frame knife

Great Eastern also makes a fish-tail fish knife!

Here is a more traditional looking fish knife with a little sumpin-sumpin, added - a "Beverage Can" Opener. There was a time when beer cans weren't easy opening. The knife solved the problem!

Not quite sure what possessed me to buy a Damascus Fish-Knife

(closed length is 5 inches. Handle material is camel bone.)

An unusual one Tobias.

like your camel bone Damascus fish knife tobias. I understand why, it called out to you. lets see, and a front prop topwater lure, and heddon chugger, and another heddon maybe, swivel jointed with flat metal lip? OK tobias, you've discovered another one of my interests, fishing lures! I'm a topwater fisherman myself, but use a variety of all lures/spinners/spoons.
