I still want to try his yellowtail poke.

Im gonna try his collars tonight. I struggled to cut them, watched a youtube video on how to but they made it seem easier then it is.

It's a little pricey but better than buying junk every other year....i borrowed this knife to clean a 30# yt from a Japanese neighbor and was amazed on how sharp and balanced it was. This forged knife powered through tough section with ease. Bought a dexter knife but could considerably notice the difference on the amount of extra exertion required.

They sell the global g2s on amazon https://www.amazon.com/Global-G-2-in.../dp/B00005OL44 and at bed bath and beyond. My wife went to japan and just picked up a set there...all her japanese relatives use them.

My dexter I use for de-skinning...g2 for making quick work of yt along with the collars...leave the saw in the garage with this beast. Nice yt. I like hitting the bass too...I can only take so much flylining and dropperlooping for yt. Name:  uploadfromtaptalk1468267461963.jpg

Just to clarify, when you say it powered through the tough section, do you mean it powered through the thick rib bones of a 30lb yellow. I've never had a knife that could that. That would be cool. I get my large fish filleted nicely, but those thick rib bones can be tough to get through. Thanks.

Not expensive and I have no problem hacking collars out...........

I've had the same one for 14 years or so.

And maybe I need to start fishing on Sundays.

With ease.. I think the weight, rigidity and sharpness makes it easy.
