Thread: Bubba blade comments??

I need to try the Rapala if it is comparable to the American Angler...

Nothing is comparable to the power of american angler. It just eats thru like butter and no strain on the wrist. I can clean 60 crappie and not even feel like I have done a thing when thru. I would be willing to bet I currently own everybrand. When my last american angler went down, had it for 11 years, I bought rapala. Realized it had no power compared to what I was used to so I went with Mister twister, again no power, so went with Mister twister saltwater, more power, but not what I was used to. So I bought a cheap carving knife from wal-mart, and that was actually the closest I could find compared to the american angler. I was trying to save money and not buy the expensive American anglers, but.... Ther is just no comparison. I ended buying another one and it was just as sweet as i remembered! So I ended up spending over double the money before I eventually wound up with what I knew I should be buying the first place. If u have ever used an american angler nothing will satisfy you, but if ya have never used one, anything may do because ya dont know what ur missing. No advertisement here, Just speaking on behalf of what I personally experienced.

Are all of the American Anglers the same or do they sell different models?

to my knowledge they are all the same................do haven't different size / length
blades..............Unit (motor) is same...............
I wouldn't go back to Mr. Twister -Repala if they gave them to me.
Power they have..............as said mine stated getting a little hot after server fish
being fileted. Could be pressure i was puttinmg on blades to cut through bigger boned
fish.... it is sure worth price 90 - 110.00 to own one.

Save your money. I fell for the You Tube video and tried the 7" flex blade and promptly took it back to BPS for a full refund. I have kitchen knives that would do a better job on crappie. Electric is the way to go. Lesson earned.

Thank you for all the replies. Think I will keep going with my American angler.
