I saw some bad reviews. Are they really all that?
I couldn't be happier with the ones I have, both the AC and DC versions. I've had them for years with no problems at all and great service. I've been with 2 different guides who were using Mr. Twisters that stripped the gears while cleaning fish. On one occasion I was using my American Angler, and the guide borrowed it. He was filleting redfish, and I had the freshwater model, but it worked like a charm.
I've got one that I bought a couple yrs ago and I don't like the blades cause they are too sharp. They do good cutting down the backbone but when you go between the filet and the skin, it catches the skin. I thought about cutting into a brick to dull it a little, Ha. I've got an old B & D that's pretty dull and it will clean them twice as fast. The AA is a good knife but the blades are too sharp.
Love mine only one that i have ever had that will go thru those 2-3 lber. rib cages,besure to get the shark blade.
Its in the catalog.....give them a call.....1-800-305-9866 stock number for 110 volt is 31600 stock number for 12 volt is 31601Quote:

If you want the slim skinny blades that everybody likes ....you have to order them separate...Stock number 31018 they are $9.99
The curved blades work great, but the skinny, slim blades are the bomb. They are definitely worth the money.
I wonder why Wal-Mart quit carrying the AA's. I have to think either AA decided those many extra sales weren't worth it if they couldn't make a profit or else Berkeley thought surely they could make a profit with virtually no margin if they just had all those extra sales. I would not want to be a supplier to Wally World.
You don't want any old American Angler because they are not all the same. You want the one with the metal transmission.
I'm not sure the new MT3 with the metal gears has come out yet, but if it has, that's the one I would get. There was another thread a few weeks ago where someone gave a date but I don't remember what it was. My problem is that my old ones with the plastic gears are still running just great after a number of years.
How do you know if they have metal gears or not? Is there a certain model number to go by or something?Quote:

I'm not sure but I think this new model will be the only one out there by any manufacturer with metal gears.
I just checked the American Anglers website, and the new model with the metal gears is the MT3. I still don't know if they're selling it yet as I first saw it on there several weeks ago, but no one was selling it yet.
MT3.......thanks, I have that wrote down.
