The present invention is comprised of a fish filet device comprised of a body further comprised of a first end and a second end, a grip and a wrist strap. The wrist strap can be secured around the wrist of the user during use, such that the device cannot be dropped. The second end is further comprised of a plurality of teeth that can be used to secure the device into the skin of a fish. In this manner, a user can press the device into a fish using his or her non-dominant hand, in order to secure the fish and prevent the fish body from sliding on a cutting surface, while fileting the fish with a knife in his or her dominant hand.

A cutting implement including a metal substrate and a coating is provided. The coating has zirconium PVD (ZrCRTiNO), which provides protection against corrosion of the metal substrate. In some instances, the zirconium PVD provides protection from corrosion for at least 200 hours. A layer of titanium nitride (TiN) can be added to the coating to increase the hardness of the metal substrate. In such an embodiment, the layer of titanium nitride (TiN) is applied before the zirconium PVD (ZrCRTiNO). Titanium nitride (TiN) coated steel is 3 to 5 times harder than uncoated steel. Thus, a combination of titanium nitride (TiN) and zirconium PVD (ZrCRTiNO) as a coating on a metal substrate can increase the life of the metal substrate by providing increased hardness and anti-corrosive properties.

A cutting implement including a metal substrate, carbide edge(s), and coating is provided. The coating is zirconium PVD (ZrCRTiNO), which provides protection against corrosion of the metal substrate. In some instances, the zirconium PVD provides protection from corrosion for at least 200 hours. A layer of carbide can be added to one or more cutting edges of the metal substrate prior to the deposition of the coating. The carbide increases the sharpness of the cutting edges and therefore increases the life or longevity of the cutting edges. Thus, a combination of zirconium PVD (ZrCRTiNO) as a coating and carbide edges on a metal substrate can increase the life of the metal substrate by providing increased hardness, sharpness, and anti-corrosive properties.

A knife and scissors having a protection means are disclosed. The knife, which has a handle, a body extended in one direction in engagement with the handle, and a body blade formed at the bottom of the body, for performing a cutting action, includes a protrusion spaced upward from a distal end of the body, an insertion portion formed in a space between the body and the protrusion, and an upper blade formed at the bottom of the insertion portion. The upper blade cuts an object inserted in the insertion portion and the protrusion protects a human body or the object by contacting the body or the object earlier than the distal end of the body, when the body slips off the object.

Disclosed herein are multipurpose scissors. In the multipurpose scissors, an upper blade and a lower blade are connected by a pivot pin, opposite cutting edges are formed on the upper and lower blades in front of the pivot pin, and upper and lower handles configured to grip the upper and lower blades and to perform cutting work are provided in back of the pivot pin. The multipurpose scissors include a garlic mincing unit, including: a crushing part configured such that pluralities of depressions and protrusions are formed to engage with each other on the friction surfaces of the upper and lower handles; and a discharge guiding part formed on the inner side of the crushing part, and configured such that an inclined guide surface and a discharge groove configured to discharge garlic, minced via the crushing part, in one direction are formed therein.

A glove for facilitating grasping a fish while scaling, gutting, cleaning, and cutting the fish. The glove has four elongated finger portions and an elongated thumb portion extending from a palm region. A plurality of fish scaling blades is disposed on several outer surface of the glove. The glove is typically formed from a material typically having a roughened texture and is impervious to the fish cleaning by-products such as fish entrails, fish scales, and the like. An opening allows access of a hand of a wearer to a hollow interior portion and to fingers and the thumb. An optional flashlight and/or sharpening stone may be attached to the glove.

An integral hand-held device for manually securing a fish to facilitate its immovability during a fish cleaning process. The fish securing device has a handle which is adapted to be gripped by a user. The handle encases a portion of a cylindrical stem having an inner and outer surface. The portion of the stem not encased by the handle has at its forward end a serrated edge adapted to engage a fish. A user grips the handle with one hand and applies downward pressure with the securing device so that the edge penetrates a fish securing it to a cutting surface while the other hand utilizes an instrument, such as a knife, to clean the fish by filleting, skinning, gutting and/or scaling the fish. Depending on the fish type or thickness it may be necessary for a portion of the stem not encased to also penetrate the fish.

A fish scaler pocket knife device is provided. The device is comprised of two body ends, each serving a different purpose with the benefit of one device. The device is comprised of a fish cleaning tool on one end. Additionally, the device is comprised of a fish descaling tool on the opposite end. The body ends are attached at a point of rotation. The knife can be rotated degrees to store safely in the recessed area of the descaling tool.
