I've had a Rapala for years and it always gets the job done. But I spend the time and keep a nice sharp edge on it also.
I think most any knife will do a good job if you keep the blade sharp. I've seen people complain about their electric knife only to find out the blades are 5 years old and have never been sharpened. Good luck in your search... |

I hear you. Honestly I don't think the guy wanted to like the bubba blade. Just one of those kind of guys. Which one do you have?

Yes...I totally agree. My son bought me a blue handle filet knife that I use a lot too. I will have to see what brand it is. It holds a nice edge.

The blue handle knife is a Kershaw. I also have a Kommer "Big Eddy"... Use these two filet knives to de-bone deer meat and hogs.
They are all affordable and hold a good edge. |

Was looking at this one. Looks like a poor mans bubba blade (low $20's). It's a mustard with Teflon coated blades.

Looks like a nice knife. I have never used a knife with Teflon coated blades.....but I would try it.

I still just use those old school rapala knives with the wooden handle and leather sheath.

Hard to beat those! Still have one that is OLD! 2 passes on an accusharp and good to go.

Those accusharps really work? Which one do you have?

I really have been impressed with my Bubba Blade.
it carved up those ling and snapper two weeks ago with ease. As others have stated, I put a fresh edge on it before each use and when cleaning larger fish like snapper or redfish I may even take a break mid-way through to drink a cold pop and pass it through the sharpener. |

After I learned how to use it. Its all I use. I have every sharpener made. Accusharp keeps all my knives sharp. The guy who cleans those reds at coco marina showed me how to use it. and thats all he uses. I even bought one of those work sharp belt sanders. Ill sell it for cheap.

Yeah that sucker is razor sharp out of the pack. And it sharpens up easily after use.

Them work smarts, are bad to the bone, most knives have a little different angle then there guides. But take your time and do it right knife is good for 3 hogs and two deer!! Just got to learn how to use it. Auccua sharp is what we use cutting net rap off hay, good for 6-8 bails and run it back thro and good to go again. Edge just don't last.
