If you're deadset on it, I can say that the best fillet knife I've owned is a Bubba.  That sucker goes on every fishing trip and stays in the house for meat prep when it's not on the boat or dock.  If I were handling a large assortment of halibut and salmon in Alaska, I'd probably choose the 9" flex.  If I could choose two, I'd probably add a 9" stiff.

If he is swinging a Vicki he already has the best fillet knife on the market. Since he likes Victorinox buy him a few extras. I love the 8 & 10" breaking knife. Sounds like he uses a 12" cimeter. The ones with a Granton edge are super nice to use too.

Great solution from a guy that has probably cut more fish than the rest of HuntWa combined.  No exaggeration.  :tup:

I like the Ozark trail from Wal-Mart.
You can get that sucker sharp,super sharp.
Not sure the price now.
But I bought mine for like 3 dollars.
It works and works and works ,and just keeps ticking.

Professional knives are a very individual thing.
