American Angler Pro
Well I finally broke down and bought a American Angler Pro electric fillet knife. After wasting a lot of money on most of the other brands that either just stopped, wouldn't cut through crappie ribs or got to hot and burned out I am going to try this American Angler Pro. I don't know why they call it a American Angler as it is made in China. Seems like everything is made there now a days. I hope it works better than the 5 other brands that I have went through. I have read a lot of good reviews here on Crappie.com about the American Angler Pro series electric knife so maybe this will cut through the ribs and last a long time as it was almost double the price that I gave for all the other electric knifes. Well it comes with a 2 year warranty so that is a plus as most don't even have a warranty or have 1 year warranties. Hope to catch a few crappie in the next few days to give it a good try or work out. I will be letting you all know in the future how it is working for me.

Mine had survived 3 Oscar orgies in Florida and 3 years of less vigorous outings. Plus I got mine used off EBay, though the seller claimed it had been used only a couple of times. Rapala and other brand blades will fit mine also, which helps cause I'm on my 3rd set of blades.

close to 15 years.

I got the same knife and just got the hang of using the electric and love it vs the regular fillet knife but last week I had some slabs to clean and I was having issues with the button sticking when I let off of it. Just wondered if anybody has had the same issue with it or not. I guess it don't matter if it sicks but since I'm still kind of a newbie with an electric, I still live to stop the blade for a second once I hit the spine before turning the blade to the side.

The American Angler is the only knife I recommend to clients who ask. The shark blades are a neccessary extra. Even after thousands of fish she keeps on going....altho I bought a back up because shes starting to grind in the motor...probably the brushes or something.
