The Hygiplas blue fillet knife is a dedicated filleting blade designed for breaking down and portioning raw fish in commercial kitchen environments. The blue handle follows the widely adopted colour-coded system used across professional kitchens to prevent cross-contamination between different food types — blue designating raw fish.

The flexible stainless steel blade is well suited to running close to bone and skin, allowing for clean, controlled cuts with minimal waste. At 16cm, it strikes a practical balance between manoeuvrability and reach, making it appropriate for a range of fish from smaller portions through to medium whole fish. The dishwasher-proof handle allows for thorough cleaning in a commercial glasswasher or dishwasher without degradation over time, which matters in kitchens where knives go through multiple wash cycles each service.

  • Colour-coded blue handle supports HACCP-compliant food safety systems
  • Flexible blade designed for accurate filleting along bone and skin
  • Dishwasher-proof construction suits high-frequency commercial cleaning routines
  • Lightweight at 70g, reducing hand fatigue during extended prep sessions

This knife is a straightforward, reliable choice for kitchens that handle raw fish regularly and operate a colour-coded knife system. It is particularly well suited to smaller operations, fish-forward menus, and kitchens building out their HACCP toolkit without a large outlay. Kitchens with higher throughput or specialist requirements may benefit from a heavier-duty filleting knife with a stiffer or longer blade.

If you are setting up a colour-coded knife system from scratch or want to discuss which knives best suit your prep requirements, the team is happy to help.

Frequently asked questions

Where does this knife fit within a HACCP colour-coded system?

Blue is the standard colour designation for raw fish in most professional kitchen colour-coding systems. Using a dedicated blue-handled knife helps prevent cross-contamination between raw fish and other food types, which is a core requirement of HACCP-based food safety management.

Is the blade flexible enough for whole fish as well as fillets?

The blade has the flexibility expected of a purpose-built fillet knife, making it well suited to running along bones and under skin on both prepared fillets and smaller to medium whole fish. For very large whole fish or high-volume round-the-clock fish prep, a longer or more specialist blade may be more appropriate.

Can this knife go through a commercial dishwasher every service?

The handle is designed to be dishwasher-proof, so regular commercial dishwasher cycles should not cause it to crack, warp, or degrade. As with all kitchen knives, storing it correctly after washing — away from other blades — will help preserve the edge for longer.
