Electric fillet knife versus traditional

[dipbait]

What do you guys prefer for filleting? Ive used both.For me an electric is faster but easier to make a mistake with . Unless pressed for time I prefer a regular blade .

i wouldnt use an electric knife for anything except throwing it in the garbage can

All the people I know here in Alaska use an electric fillet on their salmon if they are near an outlet. And these are people who have been in the fishing industry for decades. I have some nice fillet knives but even my father uses an electric. It does a fast and fantastic job.
