Abstract
A filleting knife is disclosed having a reciprocating, motor driven filleting blade mounted on a buoyant handle. A flashlight head is mounted on the handle opposite the knife. A rechargeable battery is housed within the handle and can power either the knife or the flashlight via separate on/off switches. The handle is contoured to fit a user's hand, and is circumscribed with additional buoyant foam that covers the outer surface of the handle such as to provide a sufficient additional buoyancy such as to allow the entire knife to float when dropped or placed in water.
