Dexter UR-Cut Fillet Knife

This 7-inch narrow fillet knife from long-established knife-maker Dexter has a unique feature: You can mold the handle to fit your own hand. The bright-orange handle can be dipped in very hot water until soft and then gripped to mold to the shape of your palm's grip. As it cools, the material hardens into that shape to be form-fitting to your palm. Blades are made from proprietary DEXSTEEL ™, a stain-free, strong, high-carbon steel. As with all quality knives, do not put them in the dishwasher. The UR-Cut comes in 6-, 7- and 8-inch sizes. The 7-inch narrow fillet is probably the most useful knife for cleaning a wide variety of fish. Retail for 7-inch version, $31.99. See www.dexter1818.com.
