In the market for a batt powered fillet knife.

Been lurkin around this site for a while and im a first time poster. I tried to search the forum for some history on this but didnt have much luck.
I have had a couple of different fillet knives in the past. Starting with the tried and true mr twister on now to my last purchase which was the batt powered bubba blade. It worked fine but crapped out on me a few days ago. I got some serious sticker shock when i went to replace it. I was wondering if u guys have had any luck with some of the cheaper amazon knives around $100 or so.
I use the knife for cleaning mostly catfish and the occasional white perch. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I have an Old Timer and it works well. It's 70 bucks on Amazon. I have the Bubba kit but I use the Old Timer more because it's so easy to store.
The Old Timer just works and it's in a simple bag. The case on the Bubba is too nice for something I'm going to get blood and scales on.
If you really want to kick up the Old Timer get a spare set of Mr Twister stiffer blades for those bigger size cats.

Good friend gave me a bubba blade battery powered knife.
It’s pretty great.

I have tried most of the new battery filet knives and not impressed with any of them. They just don’t have the blade speed and power for me. The heavy duty corded rapala is the best for me hands down and is what I use. I order a new set of blades one or twice a year and it never lets me down.

Rapala Lithium. I gave my Bubba away after using the Rapala. Rapala has way more speed and torque. Also the trigger on bubba is terrible, you will be wore out after a large mess of fish. Rapala has trigger in perfect spot.

American angler is top of the line based on my 25+ yrs owning two. Bought my second one two years ago and it’s as well built as first one. I’m well pleased and use it on channel and blue catfish, specks, redfish.
