(Original Edge) * Special Note:Once again, capitalizing on their knowledge of fishing, in 1967, Normark owners, Rod Weber and Ray Ostrom, brought out a fillet knife, one modeled after a well-worn butcher's knife. Weber had to convince Finnish knife maker Lauri Marttiini to take on the task of fabricating the very thin, flexible blade he envisioned.
