I would have a tough time with the filet knife..I like to lay the entire edge on the cutting board with the edge between the skin and flesh..the projection at the bottom would make that difficult.

Good looking set; my quibble is that fillet knives tend to get dropped in water during use and to clean the gunk off the knife and that handle material might not "weather" it well.  As much as I avoid the synthetics there are times where they fit the use case perfectly.

I'm curious as to the temper of the fillet.  Tell me how you went about it.  It's my understanding that you want a little more flexibility in the blade.  They look great, love the antler, and overall shape.
