    For those of you that use this knife, how do you like the trigger being on top? Does it take a lot of thumb pressure? I have thumb arthritis and just trying to decide if it would work for me. I have always used corded, bottom trigger models.

    I also have that problem and, pressure or not, I wouldn't even think about it. It's hard enough to bend my thumb without extra pressure.

    I don’t have a problem with the button being on top. It’s the best cordless model out right now. Much stronger than the bubba model. I’m still hoping that American Angler produces a cordless model some day.

    I'm with you on an AA cordless. I really like their shark blades.

    had a AA corded for many years and it was great and reliable. But when it finally quit I tried to buy another and it was now made in china and was junk. Tried Rapala's, two in fact but they were not good and returned them. Finally settled on Mr twister and have used that for many years with no issues and it was very inexpensive but cord model.
