Named after Montana’s state fish, the Westslope knife is built for freshwater anglers who demand precision.

Unlike traditional fillet knives made for large saltwater catches, the Westslope excels at gutting and cleaning trout, perch, pike, salmon, and walleye—right on the bank or boat. Whether prepping food or cleaning your catch at camp, this specialized tool offers the control needed for small to medium-sized fish.

Protecting the Westslope Cutthroat Trout:

As a species of concern in Montana, the native Westslope Cutthroat faces habitat loss and competition from non-native species, and environmental changes. We named this knife to help raise awareness for conservation efforts restoring habitats, protecting pure populations, and supporting sustainable fishing.

As a Montana-based company, we stand behind the work being done by state, tribal, federal, and private agencies preserve our state’s wild waters and native fish.

MAGNACUT STAINLESS STEEL

MODIFIED SHEEPSFOOT BLADE

The Westslope’s distinctive blade profile features a curved edge with a subtle drop at the tip, specifically designed for edge-up gutting and cleaning.

This lets the blade glide with precision while minimizing the risk of accidental punctures or hand slices common with traditional pointed blades. The Westslope’s geometry creates the perfect balance between sharpness and safety. The tip’s subtle blunting lets you get under the skin while the curved belly slices cleanly through tissue.
MAGNACUT STAINLESS STEEL

As a cryogenically heat-treated stainless steel, MagnaCut provides the perfect blend of toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance — critical qualities for a knife regularly exposed to water.

Unlike other stainless steel blades, MagnaCut can be easily resharpened, even by novice knife owners. More wear-resistant than other stainless steel and more corrosion-resistant than carbon steel, MagnaCut is in a class of its own — especially important for a knife that frequently encounters moisture, river water, and fish slime.
CLEAN, FISHERMAN-FRIENDLY G10 HANDLE

The Westslope features our signature G10 handle scales, optimized for fish processing’s unique challenges.

The bulletproof G10 material won’t absorb fish smells, won’t crack or break, and maintains excellent grip even when wet with water or fish muck. The contours are designed for comfortable extended use, whether you’re cleaning a single catch or processing an entire day’s haul.

SURGICAL PRECISION FOR FRESHWATER SPECIES

Where big fillet knives feel like overkill for smaller fish, the Westslope gives you the control you need when every cut counts.

This knife was built for those moments when you’re working with trout, perch, salmon, walleye, and other fish that demand more finesse than force. The blade’s thin profile slices clean and true, following your hand’s natural movement when gutting or cleaning. Flip the knife edge-up and you’ll immediately feel how the curved design works with you, not against you. It’s like switching from a cleaver to scalpel — the Westslope gives you just what you need to separate meat from waste without mangling what you’re planning to eat later.
