Not worth it!
My old Mister Twister still does good...I replace the blades every year

"Pro Model" Iam sure there are some "pros" lined up to get one.
It's probably a good knife. Not sure it's worth that unless u guide redfish and trout for a living.
It's $109.99 at Amazon.com. It's American Angler's newest model. It has twice the torque of their other knives. I've got an older American Angler that I really like with the Shark Blade.
I hate mr twister
That's exactly what I use.Quote:

$10 at walmart. I like the offset blades.
Was just at BPS. They have the knife with one set of blades for $79.99.

I know what ya mean, fillet knives will last a long time on average sized crappie, but when you start filleting a box of fish from Grenada or Sardis or any of the big 4 you will find out what your knife is made of for sure.Quote:

I have never seen one last a year.. Tried original mr twister, mr twister piraņa( which is no better than the green and yellow one) American anglers, rapala( which was a complete joke) browning.. I will say the best was the American angler. It lasted a little over a year
I had pretty good luck with one. I'll find out because I have a brand new one for this year to try out. I'm kind of under the impression some might work better than others but not worth all the extra cost. I had one of those mister twister last year and got brand new blades at Bass Pro and it wouldn't cut thru butter even with those new blades.Quote:

Love my old blue American Angler. I promise it has to be 15 years old and still going strong.
I have figured out one basic law of economics in my lifetime, and that is ...."You get what you pay for."
A hard law for a poor man to live by, I might add!
I've got the same blue American Angler but don't remember it costing near that much.Quote:
