Dexter-Russell #1 Leather Knife Sheath, Fits Up to 9-inch Blades

Dexter-Russell’s #1 leather sheath fits blades up to 9 inches long, which covers 8- and 9-inch fillet knives as well as boning and utility knives. It is the most visited sheath on our site, and anglers search for it as a Dexter fillet knife sheath.

Slits near the top slip onto a belt, so the knife rides at the hip on a boat or at a cleaning table and stays protected in a tackle bag between trips. A wet knife should be dried before it goes back in, which keeps both the leather and the blade in good condition.
