{"product_id":"benchmade-18020-fishcrafter-9-inch-fillet-knife","title":"Benchmade 18020 Fishcrafter Fixed Blade Fillet Knife — 9\" CPM-MagnaCut, Depth Blue Santoprene Handle","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eFish more. Sharpen less. The Benchmade 18020 Fishcrafter is the full-size fillet knife built for anglers who go after serious fish — the 9\" model that excels at processing medium to large catches where the extra blade length makes all the difference between a smooth, clean fillet and a frustrating series of short strokes. Whether you're running through a live well full of walleye, striper, or salmon, the 18020 gets the job done efficiently, consistently, and without complaint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003ePart of Benchmade's Water Series, this knife was engineered from the ground up for the demands of the aquatic environment. The 9\" trailing point blade is crafted from CPM-MagnaCut stainless steel (60-62 HRC) — a revolutionary powder metallurgy steel that delivers a combination of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance that outperforms traditional fillet knife steels by a wide margin. Benchmade's SelectEdge technology produces a razor-sharp, ultra-fine edge specifically optimized for powerful push-cutting and effortlessly smooth filleting. The blade features a long, straight edge section for stability through the cut and an upswept tip specifically designed for precision deboning work. The thin 0.090\" profile with medium flex allows the blade to hug the backbone and glide under the skin of large fish with minimal waste and maximum efficiency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe Depth Blue Santoprene handle is contoured for a confident, secure grip in wet conditions — with a finger guard featuring jimping to prevent slipping during hard push-cuts and a lanyard hole for wrist attachment or gear tethering. Full tang construction provides exceptional strength and balance throughout. The included Sonar Gray injection-molded sheath features two side slits for alternative mounting options and a drainage hole at the tip to protect the blade between uses. At just 3.80 oz and 13.94\" overall, the 18020 is lightweight and purpose-built for the water. Proudly made in the USA and backed by Benchmade's LifeSharp lifetime sharpening service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eBlade Length: 9.00\" (22.86 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eBlade Thickness: 0.090\" (2.29 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eOverall Length: 13.94\" (35.41 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eBlade Steel: CPM-MagnaCut Stainless Steel (60-62 HRC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eBlade Style: Trailing Point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eBlade Finish: Satin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eBlade Edge: Plain with SelectEdge Sharpening\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eHandle Material: Depth Blue Santoprene\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eHandle Features: Finger Guard with Jimping, Lanyard Hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eConstruction: Full Tang\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eSheath: Sonar Gray Injection Molded (Side Slits \u0026amp; Drainage Hole)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eAmbidextrous: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eKnife Weight: 3.80 oz (107.73 g)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eSheath Weight: 2.60 oz (73.71 g)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eUPC: 610953207908\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eMade in the USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eIn Stock \u0026amp; Ready to Ship from ClassicBlades.
