The Herring knife is part of Kershaw’s Pro-Grade Specialty Fish & Game series. Pros know that having the right tool for the job makes every job easier. That’s the idea behind Kershaw Pro-Grade series; you’ll always have just the right knife for every job.
If you use plug-cut herring or other baitfish, this is your must-have tackle box tool. The 1285’s razor-sharp cutting edge lets you make the precise cut you need to put the proper spin on the bait. You get a clean cut with no torn edges so the bait does exactly what it’s supposed to do. Of course, the 1285 does a precision job on other bait-cutting chores, too, and even makes a handy utility knife.
All Kershaw-sharp Pro-Grade blades are 420J2 stainless steel for excellent corrosion resistance—always important for use in a wet environment. The steel is also quite tough and easy to re-sharpen. The Pro-Grade handle is a proven design that enables your hand to lock easily into place for comfort and control, even when you’re doing a lot of bait cutting.
