Had a mister twister electric knife years ago and it burned up cleaning some big fish. Bought an American angler electric knife about right after and its still going strong, however still use the mister twister blades from the knife on it. I did buy a cordless Rapala Knife with the ion batteries on sale from gander mt this spring to use at the camper until electric gets turned on in May and i am quite pleased with it so far. I did buy the longer thinner blades for it though. I cut through 36 fish with it one day and 24 the next on one charge over Memorial day weekend.
