ABSTRACT:
A folding fillet knife comprises a molded two-piece plastic or metal handle, a metal blade pivotally connected to the handle and pivotable between open and closed positions, and a latching member slidably mounted on the handle. The latching member is spring biased into a latching position wherein it engages the base end of the blade and either releasably secures the blade in closed position or positively locks the blade in open position. The latching member is slidably movable to an unlatching position either automatically (as the blade opens) to enable the blade to be pivoted from closed to open position, or manually to allow the blade to be pivoted from open to closed position.
