An Empire Outfitters exclusive — the filet knife that Team Fiasqo designed and Ban Tang built to process fish like nothing else on the market. "The Sickle" takes its sickle-shaped profile from nature's own blueprint — the fins of a tuna — and pairs it with CPM MagnaCut steel for a blade that stays sharp through marathon filleting sessions and shrugs off corrosion from saltwater and fish oils. The 8½-inch full flat ground blade tapers from 0.090" down to a scalpel-thin 0.035" near the tip for maximum flex and precision, while rope pattern G10 handles lock into your grip even when things get slippery. At 13⅜ inches overall with full tang construction, this is a bespoke fish processing tool built for serious anglers. Includes kydex sheath. New from the maker, handmade in the USA.

A knife is never just a knife.
The Sickle is no different.  Nature’s perfect design, tunas use sickle-shaped fins for precision and a speed while hunting prey.   
So naturally (pun intended) Team Fiasqo had a sickle-shape in mind when designing a knife.
A knife that would:
-make quick work of large fish
- have enough flex to maximize yield
- have a shape that would allow proper ergonomics, while minimizing the number of cuts needed, resulting in a beautifully processed fish 
-be made of a material that would tolerate severe duty/commercial applications for reliable, stain-free performance.
Like most great things the idea was simple and started with a napkin sketch and a spirited conversation with Empire Outfitters who tapped Ban Tang Knives to make this vision a reality.  - Team Fiasqo
