Default Electric Knife Recommendations

Hello brethren. With turkey season fast approaching, I was wondering what electric knife would you recommend and why. The fiancee just told me that I must get one for this year.

Google electric knife reviews or epinions.com if this helps at all.

I can't comment on any other electric knives..... but I have a Rapalla and it works great. Mine came in a kit with two blades (replacement ones are $10) and is 12V or 110V. It has a super long cord and there is a cutting board that clips onto the outside of the case.

In my opinion, in most cases the average joe uses his electric knife about once or twice a year for a turkey or ham. Go to wally world and buy the cheapest one you can find. It will be up to the task.

I use an electric knife to fillet my walleyes and probably do hundreds of them a year. I use either a "mister twister" knife or , lately an American Angler "ultra". Either one does a good job but I wouldn't necessarily recommend one to just carve the occasional turkey.

I use the el cheapo from wal mart since I don't use it very often. Works great for when I need it for briskets etc. but I also filet fish with it and it makes quick work of those speckled trout I so love to catch.

My thoughts exactly billm. Any question asked here can be googled. Thanks to all that answered with which electric knife that THEY currently use and/or would recommend.

Count me in on as another happy owner of a Rapala. I have an extra long straight blade as well, that can make short work of brisket when needed as well.

I recommend that you do not try running them submerged in the sink.

Honestly an electric knife is so ....... it's kind of like using your oven and liquid smoke and calling it BBQ.

Buy good knives and an EdgePro sharpener and leave them in your will to your children. Actually mine all go to my eldest grandson.
