Cold Steel Commercial Series Fillet Knife 8"

A knife designed for filleting meat and other kitchen tasks. The Straight Back blade is made from 4116 Cryo Quenched stainless steel. The black, ergonomically shaped handle is made from Zy-Ex material and covered with Kray-Ex material approved for food contact, featuring a non-slip texture.

4116 Cryo Quenched stainless steel

The blade is made from 4116 Cryo Quenched stainless steel, subjected to cryogenic treatment, which allows for higher hardness and improved impact resistance. The steel exhibits corrosion resistance and is easy to sharpen.

Straight Back blade profile

The Straight Back profile blade has a length of 203 mm and a thickness of 2 mm. The blade is finished with a satin finish method, leaving an even, linear mark after processing and reducing reflections on the blade surface.

Zy-Ex and Kray-Ex handle

The ergonomically designed handle has a rigid core made from Zy-Ex material, which increases durability, and an outer layer made from Kray-Ex material approved for food contact. The soft scales with a non-slip texture enhance grip control.

Kray-Ex feature
Kray-Ex
Kray-Ex is a synthetic polymer with a rubber-like structure used by Cold Steel to manufacture knife handles. It is characterized by high adhesion and anti-slip properties, ensuring a secure grip even in high humidity, low temperatures, and with dirty hands. The material is flexible and absorbs shocks well, which increases comfort of use. Kray-Ex is also resistant to cracking, abrasion, chemicals, and adverse weather conditions, making handles made of this material durable and virtually maintenance-free. Cold Steel uses it in tactical, survival, and utility knives.
4116 Cryo Quenched feature
4116 Cryo Quenched
4116 Cryo Quenched is an improved version of 4116 stainless steel (DIN 1.4116), produced by ThyssenKrupp, subjected to additional cryogenic treatment, which improves its durability and mechanical properties. The carbon content (0.45-0.55%) ensures good hardness, while chromium (14-15%) provides corrosion resistance. The steel also contains molybdenum, vanadium, manganese, silicon, and nickel, which support its strength. The cryogenic process stabilizes the steel, increases wear resistance, and maintains sharpness for longer. After heat treatment, it reaches a hardness of 55-57 HRC, making it easy to maintain and resistant to corrosion. It is widely used in the production of kitchen knives and premium utility tools.
Satin feature
Satin
Satin finishing is one of the most popular blade finishes, achieved by grinding the steel with fine-grained abrasives. Parallel micro-scratches remain on the surface, giving the knife a technical, matte appearance. Satin finishing has both aesthetic and practical significance - a smoothed blade is easier to clean, and the slightly reduced friction promotes smoother cutting. Depending on the direction and intensity of polishing, different effects are achieved - from a matte finish to an almost mirror-like finish. Satin is valued in both utility and collector's knives because it emphasizes the structure and quality of the steel while maintaining functionality.
Zy-Ex feature
Zy-Ex
Zy-Ex is a composite material developed by Cold Steel, based on glass fiber reinforced polyamide. It is characterized by high mechanical strength, abrasion resistance, and low water absorption, allowing it to retain its properties even under intensive use in harsh conditions. The material is lightweight yet very rigid, allowing for the construction of a solid handle without excessively increasing the weight of the knife. The surface of Zy-Ex is designed to imitate the structure of natural wood, which gives it an attractive appearance and improves grip. Thanks to the combination of these features, Zy-Ex is used in tactical, outdoor, and EDC knives.

    Great kitchen knife, since I have it, I don't use other knives anymore. It has a comfortable, non-slip handle, good balance, and blade shape. It cuts very conveniently and is really versatile. The 4116 steel is quite solid (although some people joke it's too soft). You'd think a knife is a simple thing, but details play a big role – C.S. really knows their stuff. It easily handles slicing tomatoes. The set includes a sheath, so you can easily take it camping and prepare meals outdoors.

    A comfortable knife for everyday use in the kitchen. It sharpens easily and stays sharp for a long time. It's worth trying – for me, it worked very well as a complement to my other knives.

    Great for cutting meat. The blade has the right width and thickness for this type of work. The handle is comfortable and doesn't slip out of wet hands. The steel can be easily sharpened. I definitely recommend it.

    Great knife, I use it during fishing trips. It's really excellent – I recommend it to everyone. I have a different model in the kitchen, but for outings by the water, this one is indispensable. It arrived very sharp, so you have to be careful!

    It's perfect as a travel kitchen knife. The wide blade and thin profile are great for slicing and chopping. At home, it complements the larger chef's knife well. It's durable and can handle simple outdoor tasks. The steel is practically completely resistant to rust and easy to sharpen. Great quality at a good price.

    It all depends on your preferences – for me, it's a bit too heavy for a kitchen knife. Still, it's worth trying out for yourself.

    I own this knife in my collection, it's hard to find any other use for it in the kitchen besides slicing beef. The build quality is fine, but I wouldn't buy it again.

    An interesting knife, I bought it for my collection. Old Hickory made by Cold Steel. I recommend it for collectors or fans of this brand.

    I think Cold Steel brand fillet knives are excellent! This 8-inch model is very long and complemented my kitchen set perfectly. However, I most often use a shorter knife for filleting, so that's a suggestion for those just starting out with filleting.

    Great kitchen knife, it’s suitable not only for filleting. The handle is comfortable, and the steel is high quality.
