The VG10 Flex Gut n Bait Knife combines the performance of a high-end chef’s blade with the durability and ergonomics required for real-world fishing use. The flexible VG10 steel blade delivers excellent edge retention while resisting corrosion far better than traditional steels.

Designed for efficiency on the water, the knife features a fillet-style slicing edge on the front and a serrated edge with gut hook on the back—allowing anglers to clean fish, prep bait, and dress lures with a single tool. A molded, nonslip grip ensures comfort and control, even with wet hands, while the included ventilated sheath keeps the blade dry and protected between uses.
