Product Overview

Prepare whole fish with the Westmark Scalex covered fish scaler. Its stainless-steel working blade sits beneath a coated die-cast aluminum body, with a translucent lid over the scale-collection cavity.

The collector helps contain loosened scales during use. The integrated handle places your grip behind the covered head and ends in a hanging hole. At approximately 8¼ inches long, it offers a covered alternative to an exposed pin or perimeter-tooth scaler.

A working blade beneath the collector

The underside view shows the toothed stainless-steel strip and the opening into the collection cavity. Above it, the translucent lid covers the head rather than the handle.

This construction gathers scales as you work while leaving a separate grip at the rear. Keep fingers clear of the working strip when turning the scaler over for inspection.

Work against the direction of the scales

Secure the fish on a stable board, hold the scaler by its handle and work against the scale growth. Short, controlled strokes from tail toward head let you reposition the fish without reaching across the working blade.

Check that the lid is properly seated before starting. Pause to empty accumulated scales as needed, keeping your other hand away from the blade and the path of travel.

Open the lid for cleanup

The lid opens to expose the collector, so trapped scales can be removed after use. Empty the cavity and clear the working strip carefully before cleaning; use a brush rather than your fingers around the teeth.

This Scalex fish scaler is dishwasher safe. Let it dry before storage, then use the handle's hanging hole or place it where the blade will not catch on other utensils.
