SORD 6" Serrated Knife - LIMITED EDITION DARKSCALE

Built from real-world demand and proven on some of the toughest fish in the Gulf, the SORD 6" Serrated Knife – Limited Edition Darkscale delivers unmatched cutting power in a compact, highly controllable design. Known around the SORD lineup as the “Wild Child,” this blade brings the same aggressive serrated performance as its 9" predecessor, now refined for precision work on a wider range of species.

Designed for anglers who handle everything from heavy-duty tuna to tight, technical cuts on sheepshead, triggerfish, and redfish, this knife excels where traditional straight blades struggle. The shortened 6-inch blade offers increased control at the tip, making it easier to execute detailed cuts around bones, collars, and rib cages while still powering through thick scales and tough skin.

The Limited Edition Darkscale version features a bold red and black fish-scale patterned G10 handle, built to reflect the very species this knife was designed to dominate. Its textured, layered construction ensures a secure grip even in wet, slick conditions, making it a reliable tool at any cleaning station.

Field-tested in Destin, Florida and Dauphin Island, Alabama, this knife has earned its place through real use—not theory. Whether you’re processing your catch dockside or prepping bait offshore, the Darkscale is built to work as hard as you do.
