Phil Wilson is truly unique among custom knifemakers. In addition to his exceptional craftsmanship, he is also a passionate outdoorsman with a deep understanding of the design dynamics of high-performance hunting and fishing knives. One of his most popular custom designs is the Shelter Cove–the fillet knife of choice for many experienced anglers around the world. Spyderco now proudly offers an affordable production version of this exceptionally refined model. Its blade is made from 8Cr17MoV stainless steel and is precision full-flat ground to provide an extremely thin edge geometry and a consistent taper toward the tip. Expertly heat treated for an optimal balance of edge retention and flexibility, it also features a full-tang construction, ergonomic G10 handle scales, and an enlarged lanyard hole. As a faithful realization of Wilson’s sought-after custom design, the Shelter Cove comes complete with a beautifully crafted genuine leather sheath with a belt loop.
