Thread: Filet knife

Heard good things about the Bubba Blade.

dexter Russell . 8 or 9 inch blade. you can't go wrong with it. Memphis Net and Twine - Custom Commercial Fishing Nets, Sports Nets, & Industrial Nets

If your going to look at the bubba blade look at the reviews. I have not had either one but many of the reviews that I have read on them say that you can get a Forschner fillet knife for about half the price and they are supposed to be a good fillet knife. You may also want to search some previous threads on the same thing. I am an electric guy, but I have used the wood handled Rapala and it worked good for me.

Where's Nimrod I know he will have an answer.

Rapala are still good and most even the cheap off brands are suprize'nly sharp. I recommend a good steel to maintain the sharp straight edge over sharpening them too often wearing them down.

Many people can sharpen a knife well. I am not one.

I got one of these, and now it almost doesn't matter what kind of knife I use. I know I can sharpen it and it will work great.

Yes Mickey has one and they work good but each sharpening removes metal, use a steel after each use to straighten blade edge and it will stay sharp much longer without removing metal.

Bubba blade and Berkeley. Bubba holds edge better and longer than Berkeley.
