[#0000FF]There is a saying (from the movie Bambi) that if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything.
I will say that the Rapala has a good motor...and it does cut fish. But I have found the blade design to be a bit problematic. Electric fillet knives cut with just the tips of the serrated blades. And a gentle serration works better than a harsh one. The points on the Rapala blades are elongated...more like needles than cutting edges.
I have tried friends' Rapalas a couple of times and have found them to not work nearly as smoothly as others. Still, there are folks out there who have them and love them.
All I can say is that after you have had the chance to try several kinds...side by side...you will have a better ability to judge which one works best for you...and why.
How can you describe the taste of salt to someone who has never tasted salt...without using the word "salty". Same thing.
