    Default Which electric filet knife do you use?


    I'm shopping for a new electric filet knife, and have been shopping on Amazon. Most of the reviews for the different knives are horrible, and the biggest complaint being underpowered.

    I'm looking for a 120 volt knife as I don't want to deal with drained batteries and such. The good electric knives do such a great job of cutting through the ribcage bones.

    So, what's the favorite of crappie.com guys?

    Go out to various department stores and find you some SALE knives. This time of year you can find some for $4-$6 maybe a bit more and do a little stocking up. I've had excellent results with this, some of these knives last longer than leading brands, some don't. You can't go wrong.

    My old american angler lasted over 10 years and cleaned well over 10,000 crappies and gills before it finally quit on me. Bought 2 new ones. The saltwater with the so-called metal gears and a regular. The saltwater one was used on Lake Erie walleyes only and didn't last 3 seasons for me. Maybe 70 fish or less. Gears are stripped dang near clean. The regular one isn't as powerful as the old model i had and is slowing down after just 2 seasons. So i bought a mister twister this spring and i'm not happy with it at all. Blades are sharp but thats all i can say good about it. So i'm gonna keep running my angler til it quits then i'll try the cheapo's. They just dont make stuff as well as they used too anymore.
