When the job calls for heavy-duty processing of large fish, the Dexter 12" Fish Splitter Knife is the industry standard. This specialized, robust knife is designed with a long 12-inch blade and significant "backbone" to handle the toughest tasks that smaller knives can't manage. It is the indispensable tool for professional fish processors, charter captains, and serious offshore anglers for duties such as chopping off fish heads, making chum, cutting bait, and splitting large fish like tuna, grouper, and salmon along the spine.
The blade is proudly USA-made from Dexter's proprietary DEXSTEEL™ high-carbon stainless steel. This material is engineered for both incredible strength and superior edge retention, meaning it stays ultra-sharp through strenuous chopping and cutting tasks. Furthermore, it offers excellent resistance to corrosion and staining in harsh, high-moisture marine and commercial environments.
Safety and hygiene are maximized by the industry-leading Sani-Safe® handle. Constructed from textured, durable polypropylene, the handle provides a non-slip grip that ensures maximum control and safety, even when hands are wet or oily. The knife's design is fully NSF Certified, featuring an impervious seal where the blade meets the handle. This critical feature prevents the harbor of bacteria and makes sterilization and cleanup quick and complete, essential for commercial operations.
Invest in the uncompromising strength and hygiene of the Dexter 12" Fish Splitter. It is the dependable, Made in USA tool built to withstand the demands of processing your largest catches.
