Up on the Housetop, Trout Fillets Flow

William Scagel built knives in Michigan for nearly 50 years, and this pattern carries his home state in the name. The Michigan Trout runs a thin .095" blade—practically fillet knife territory—designed to glide along the backbone of stream trout and panfish without wasting meat. At 3.75", there's enough length to work larger fish while keeping the precision needed for delicate cuts.

The triple-stack handle tells its own story: leather washers for shock absorption and tradition, micarta for durability in wet conditions, and stag for a natural grip that looks better with age. Rocco forges these in 1095, which takes the kind of screaming edge that thin fish knives demand and touches up in seconds streamside. At 4.73 ounces and 8.5" overall, the Michigan Trout earns a permanent spot in your tackle bag. Leather sheath included.
