The MAC professional 7" filet knife is a well designed flexible blade, with a nicely weighted bolster for balance. Designed with fish in mind, MAC's proprietary chomium, molybdenum, and vanadium alloyed high carbon steel is hard enough to take a very sharp edge, while remaining tough, and avoiding brittleness associated with many of the very hard alloys. Buy with confidence, as with the other blades from MAC, this filet knife is covered by MAC's generous 25 year warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. As with ALL cutlery, please respect the work that went into this piece, and keep it out of the dishwasher.

I recently purchased a MAC Professional Series 7? filet knife and wanted to write a review since there is nothing on the web about it. This is my seventh MAC, however I also have Shun, Moritaka, Takeda and Forschner. I think I have around 30 high-endish knives. I love my true Japanese Kuro-uchi knives but cutting through acidic foods (tomatoes and citrus fruits) leave the blade stained and uneven in color from base to tip. It does not effect the cutting ability but it just looks ugly. So I usually grab my Mac's for those jobs. Also, I rarely use my large knives (>7?) unless it's a slicer. Even my $200 MAC 10? Chef knife gets little use. So, I was looking for a knife to replace my German filet knife. Had my eye on this MAC Filet for years but had a hard time justifying the cost $145 new but can be had just about everywhere for $120. I didn't understand why cost so much more than other MAC blades in similar length. Until It arrived. First of all, the knife is very substantial. Significantly larger handle than their petty knives but what is more unique is the blade. It's impossibly thin. It's flexible but not flimsy. Balance at the bolster with a pinch grip right on. Definitely inspires confidence. I've never seen a profile quite like this either, leads me to believe that it could also be used as a short-slicing knife. They way that it sails through tomatoes with just a little puts a smile on your face. As I said, I love all of my knives but since little is written about this 7? Filet, I wanted to let everyone know this knife rules. Mark sent the knife out same day, free shipping and it arrived one day early. The thing I like about dealing with Chef Knives To Go is that Mark offer an unbiased opinion and stands behind his products.
