A cordless electric fillet knife at less than half the price of BUBBA's, with a claimed 1 hr 40 min runtime per charge: a good fit for freshwater anglers.
Buy it if: Freshwater anglers who want a cordless electric knife without spending premium money.
Skip it if: Saltwater anglers cleaning large, heavy-boned fish.
KastKing's Speed Demon Pro gives you a cordless electric knife for less than half the price of BUBBA's. The 2500 mAh lithium-ion pack (18650 cells) is rated by KastKing at up to 1 hour 40 minutes of continuous use, and a gauge shows 100, 75, 50 or 25% charge. The runtime is the manufacturer's figure, not ours.
This listing is the Angler Pack: a 7-inch Finesse blade and a 9-inch Talon flex blade in 420 stainless with a titanium vapor-deposition coating, one battery, a charger and a slim EVA case. Note that battery packs aren't sold separately, so if you want a spare, buy the Guide Pack (4 blades, 2 batteries, $129.99 when we checked).
On Amazon, buyers most often praise the battery life, the sharp blades, the case and the value. Reviews are more mixed than for BUBBA: some say it performs poorly, and a few find the blades fiddly to install.
It's best suited to freshwater fish. If you mostly clean large saltwater fish, BUBBA's kit with its stiff 12-inch blade is the better tool.
Here’s where its 9-inch blade sits against typical fish sizes. See blade length by fish for more.
