Overview
The Bubba 1135880 is an 8.5 inch fillet knife with an aluminum handle and a red finish, weighing about 0.63 pounds according to the spec sheet. Bubba built its name on fillet knives for freshwater and inshore species, and this model sits in that lineup as a single fixed length blade.
An 8.5 inch blade lands in a mid length range that suits panfish through mid size saltwater species better than it suits very small fish or large game fish needing a longer reach. The listing does not specify blade steel or flex rating, so buyers used to comparing those numbers on fillet knives will need to look past this spec sheet for that detail.
- 8.5 inch blade length
- Aluminum handle construction
- Red color finish
- Weighs about 0.63 pounds
Who it's for
Anglers who fillet a regular catch of small to mid size fish and want a knife with a water resistant aluminum handle rather than wood or rubber. Not sized for anglers who specifically need a longer blade for large fish.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- 8.5 inch blade suits small to mid size fish
- Aluminum handle resists water damage
- Manageable weight at 0.63 pounds
- Blade steel type is not specified
- No sheath mentioned in the listing
- Fixed blade length, no adjustability
Performance notes
At 8.5 inches, the blade is long enough to work through most panfish and inshore species in a few clean strokes without being unwieldy in a tackle box. The aluminum handle is the kind of material choice meant to hold up to repeated rinsing rather than corrode like some metal alternatives.
