Can't speak on the Bubba...or cordless. But I like my Rapala corded. Around $60.But. I was without mine a couple of weeks ago so had to go manual. After finishing up I thought...my wife has an electric bread/carving knife she never uses. So I have her blessing to give it a try on my fish. If it works...and if my Rapala wears out...that will become my "new" filet knife. At about $20 a pop, I could buy 3 at the cost of the Rapala. Further review forthcoming.
This is my video. It's a great knife and I highly recommend it. It's not cheap though, but you will have it for a long time:
Thx. Used my wife’s bread knife w/o her blessing. Worked good but didn't last long. In the garbage now. She hasn’t missed it yet. Glad I have an insulated doghouse!
Was gonna pull the trigger on a Bubba Li-ion but the many bad reviews on the sticky trigger got me thinking twice. What do you guys have to say about that?
What do I have to say? ANYTHING cordless will not out perform full electric. The only advantage is you can use cordless anywhere. But you still need to charge or replace batteries. I'll wait until I get somewhere to plug it in. Not that big of deal for me...soft or hardwater.
I’m pretty happy with my corded Heavy Duty Rapala. I’d buy another one if it crapped out. I just wish the cord was a little longer but that’s probably because my previous fillet knife had a real long cord.
My wife just got an electric knife to carve Thanksgiving turkey with, going to try it on some fish this winter, I don't see why it won't work.
