Rapala Fillet Knives Recalled

Fillet knives from Rapala USA are being recalled after the company deemed the product was a fire hazard, the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) said.

The item number for the product is RRFN. The knife handles are black and gray, and the Rapala logo is printed in red on the handle, along with the word “ION” in white.

Thank you!

Thanks, Just sent Rapala an email as my knife is on the recall list

I have two of the affected batteries. Gave my buddy a head’s up and he has 2 as well.

Just check mine and it has no white label. Called my dad his is the same way.

Thank you
Mine also needs to be replaced.

I have a 30+ year old Rapala fillet knife that doesn’t use batteries – is that a fire hazard, too?

Only when cutting into a musky.

I can’t find a list.

How about the RRFNB?

I meet all the other criteria listed.

Upon further review it does have a white ETL label, so I’m good.

Mine say RRFNB but definetly don’t have that label.

Has anyone talked to them to know what to do. I called and left a message. Said would be returned by end of day. That was Tuesday at 9AM.

I contacted Rapala by email on Tuesday and also have heard nothing in response. I can only assume that they are swamped with the recall. I will attempt again next week.

I filled out a claim on their website and it said to attach pics which I did. I received an email response immediately (auto generated).
Follow this link and look for the hyperlink to submit claim for replacement:
