Thread: Filet Knife Bargain

After talking good about my rapala that had worked for years, I think my trigger switch is going out on me. Took 2 fish to get it to quit acting up but ended up working right for the other 28. I ordered an American angler after using one the other day, thing is like a chainsaw! But I agree, for the coin, those are decent little knives

The only thing bad was the position on the blade release buttons. I hit it a few times with my hand while fileting the fish and one side of the blade released. No big deal, but for less than 15 bucks not much to complain about. They only had one at the Walmart in Batesville so when I went to Oxford to eat, I stopped at the Wally World there and got another one. They had 3. My buddy Crazy Coop bought one too.

I know it's not a 90.00 American Angler, but not everybody can afford those. You can buy 6 of these for the same money tho!!!!!

I had a complete opposite experience with one of those, it's still laying in the back of my truck where I threw it

A man after my own heart, don't throw nothing away.

Wrong, going to get it out and put in back in the package and get my minner money back.

I bought one it burnt up after about 100 fish. Took it back gave me another one told the lady see you in about 100 more.

Mine made it through 60 head. Guess I only have 40 more left.

Which model American Angler are you guys referring too?

I bought that exact one 2 weekends ago and have went through about 90 fish so far it has worked great.
