What kind of fish fillet knife can I get for a budget under $50?

A fillet knife is the best knife for cleaning fish.

But fillet knives come at various price points.

Some cost a lot, but that doesn’t mean they perform the best.

You could still buy the best fillet knife under $50 and get an incredible performance when filleting a fish.

This post presents a few great fillet knives below the $50 price point.

It also looks at a few factors to consider when shopping for one and answers some frequently asked questions.

So, be sure to read on for more information.

But first, let’s clear these things up.

Buying guide

Material

The first factor you want to consider is its material.

Stainless steel is the standard material for your knife’s blade.

But stainless steel comes in varying qualities.

Be sure to look for knives with high-carbon stainless steel if you want your blade to retain its sharpness for long and stay rust-free.

Size

The next step would be to check for size.

Fish come in various sizes.

A larger fish will demand longer blades, while a smaller fish will need a shorter blade.

You can be sure to get blades ranging from 4 inches to 9 inches.

You know the fish sizes you usually handle.

Be sure to arm yourself with the right blade length.

The Handle

First, the handle should be ergonomic and non-slip.

Such a handle will ensure you have the best grip for more control of it.

Besides, you will need a comfortable grip to fillet your fish into the right sizes for cooking.

You can also check the material quality.

Rubber handles are more durable and have an excellent non-slip grip.

Also, make sure the weight on this side is light for more control and arm movement.

Sharpness

Sharpness is another important factor to consider.

Your knife should be ultra-sharp for better performance.

Also, a razor-sharp knife will perform at its best when filleting a fish.

You could also buy a knife that includes a sharpener so that you can always hone it whenever sharpness reduces.

Price

The blades cost differently depending on quality, construction, and brand among other aspects.

This is why it is necessary to have a budget so that you know the type of blade that is affordable to you.

It is worth noting that kitchen knives cost as little as $20 but there are also brands that cost in excess of hundreds of dollars.

Therefore, by having a budget, it becomes easy to identify the right brand for you; one that will give you value for your hard-earned cash.

Here Are the Best Fish Fillet Knives

1. Bubba Blade

Estimated Price: $46

My Review: This fishing fillet knife has a 7-inch Ti-Nitride coated stainless steel blades. The knife is equipped with a tactical grip that utilizes a non-slip textured grip, safety guard, and a trigger grip. A full tang tapered blade offers incredible flexibility. The sheath for the knife includes a nylon belt loop.

When I see charter captains filleting fish about half of them are using a bubba blade. Another large percentage use the dexter knife shown below. The Buba Blade is the better knife with a better grip and coated blades. It is a bit more expensive but is still a great value.

Bubba Blade has made a name for themselves being one of the best filet knives on the market. The blade is coated with a Titanium-Nitride spray that enhances resistance to corrosion!

The Bubba Blade is something a little different than most of the other knives on this list, offering a little tactical styling with a trigger-style grip.

2.Dexter Fillet knife Sheath

Estimated Price: $11

This sheath holds most Dexter knives that are 6 inches, 7 inches, 8 inches or 9 inches. This is a hard plastic sheath with drainage holes. The sheath is made in the USA.

Dexter knives are awesome but typically do not come with sheaths. This hard plastic sheath is great for securing to the boat so that a fillet knife is quickly accessible.

3.KastKing MadBite

Estimated Price: $30

My Review: These knives are available in lengths of 5-inch, 6-inch, 7-inch, and 9-inch. The blades are constructed of high-quality German sourced stainless steel. Each blade comes equipped with a non-slip polymer grip and a lockable sheath. The 9-inch version can clean large fish like salmon and wahoo.

KastKing knives get great customer reviews for good reason. They aren’t the best overall, they aren’t the most fancy, they aren’t the cheapest. What they are is an excellent value clearly designed for fishermen.

The design is rather appealing, the blades are very flexible and the construction of the blades consists of the G4416 stainless steel. At this price point, these are an excellent value.

4.Outdoor Edge

Estimated Price: $34

This is a product like no other.It is a set of fillet knives, and it contains three knives and a sharpener.The components of the set come in a storage case.The blades are 6, 7.5, and 9.5 inches in length.

Therefore, you can choose something that will fillet the fish you’ve just caught.All the knives feature a German 4116 stainless steel in their blades.The blades are also razor-sharp and stay that way for a long time.

Ince your blades become dull, you can always use the two-stage carbide and ceramic sharpener.The ergonomics of the handles are impressive since the knives are also non-slip for excellent filleting performance control.The TPE handle material also guarantees durability.

Therefore, this set has what it takes to give you service at a price below $50.

FAQ’s

What is a fillet knife used for?

It is specifically styled and designed for cutting fish as well as removing bones when preparing fish for cooking.

The knife gives good control which consequently aids in filleting.

The blade belongs to the boning knives’ category and boasts of incredible flexibility.

The trailing point blade is ideal for skinning and slicing.

Large serrated fillet blades are used for cutting tuna and other large fish species that are otherwise impossible to cut using small size blades.

Can you clean a fish without a fillet knife?

Yes.

However, there is no guarantee that you will get smoothly cut and boned fillets.

The only way you can fillet a fish without the specific blade designed for the task is by using a flexible blade.

This is because such a blade will allow for excellent maneuverability for skinning bones, fins, and entrails from fish fillets.

How long does it stay sharp?

It depends on the frequency of usage.

Your blade will become dull sooner if you use your knife a lot.

After 4–5 uses, it may lose its impressive sharpness, and you will need to hone it to restore its excellent functionality.

How do I know my knife will last long?

If the knife has superior quality materials in its build, it will last longer.

A stainless steel blade with a coated finish will resist rust and corrosion, thus staying longer.

For the handle, and ABS material or the brand’s proprietary material will make the knife last.

Be sure to also go for rubber-made handles since they’re also very durable.

Conclusion

You can still get the best fillet knife under $50 if you’re working within a tighter budget.

But finding the best ones will mean you need to check for a few factors.

This post has covered some of the factors to check.

In Focus: Twitter 2021

In November 2013 investors were preparing to invest in another millionaire maker. At that time the term "social-media" was becoming a buzz word like "blockchain" is today, and the millionaire maker was supposed to be Twitter (TWTR).

Twitter was going public more than a year after the Facebook (FB) IPO, and investors were hungry to get into the social-media business.

Facebook had gone public in May of 2012, and made its early investors billionaires, but the investors who purchased the stock after the IPO took a beating for a while.

Facebook's IPO price was $38 per share, and after the stock's debut it traded down over the next 14 weeks before finding support. The stock traded for under $20 per share for several weeks to the delight of skeptics who believed the social-media company was worthless because it didn't sell anything, but little did they know.

After Facebook found its support the stock would go on to rally and make millionaires. Twitter's stock however struggled for much longer than 14 weeks. Twitter's IPO was priced at $26 and traded to a high of $74 per share to close out 2013, but after that, it was a two year slide for the stock and another year of trading sideways.

The biggest hurdle to Twitter's stock between 2015 and 2018 was Facebook's success. Wall Street could only compare Twitter to Facebook, and downgraded Twitter because it couldn't replicate Facebook's success. While Facebook's stock flourished, Twitter's stock floundered.

At the time, very few analysts knew how a social-media company was supposed to work, and for that reason all social-media companies were put in the same bucket and expected to adhere to the same business model, and this hurt how the Street viewed Twitter.

The gap between Facebook and Twitter was extremely wide when compared head-to-head. In 2016 Facebook reported $27 billion in revenue and $10 billion in profits, during the same year Twitter reported $932 million in revenue and a net loss of $457 million.

A New Twitter / It's Okay Not to be Facebook

The tides are changing for Twitter and it appears professional investors are starting to see that it is a different animal from Facebook, and may never be as valuable as Facebook, but still very valuable.

In 2017 Mark Cuban made headlines for investing in Twitter. Cuban made the investment during a time when Wall Street analysts had written off Twitter and were licking their wounds from SNAP (SNAP), which had gone public in March 2017 and just couldn't stop dropping in price.

Cuban's reasoning for the Twitter investment was because of the company's focus on machine learning and artificial intelligence. While Wall Street analysts were beating down Twitter for not being like Facebook, Twitter was looking towards the future and Cuban noticed.

Twitter spent a good portion of the 2010s acquiring machine learning and artificial intelligence companies. In 2013 Twitter acquired data-visualization firm Lucy Sort. In 2014 Twitter acquired deep learning startup Madbits, and in 2015 it acquired Whetlab, a machine learning startup. 2019 saw Twitter lean in even more with the acquisitions of Fabula AI and Aiden.ai.

Jack Dorsey, Twitter's CEO, did what companies should do when the spotlight is off of them, he looked towards the future, instead of managing for the quarter.

Twitter is trading at $68 per share as of this writing. The stock briefly traded above $80 per share on February 25, 2021, but has sold off since then. For investors who have followed Twitter since its IPO, it once seemed that the stock would never trade out the $14 range, but it now has in a big way.

A Path Forward, Maybe

Twitter was able to report revenue growth of 7% in 2020. The global conversation surrounding COVID-19 played a big part in the company's revenue growth, as did the U.S. elections and Donald Trump's last few months on the platform.

witter's management knows a repeat of 2020 will be tough, and advised investors that they expect slower year-over-year revenue growth in 2021, but it may not be as bad as the company thinks.

The rise of GameStop, AMC, Blackberry, and the other meme stocks has made the data licensing aspect of Twitter very valuable.

Twitter allows programmers, whether hobbyists like myself or major companies and outlets to data mine tweets. For a programming newbie like myself, I've been able to use the Twitter API (Application Programming Interface) to get sentiment on stock symbols and find out what stocks are being tweeted about the most, which is very elementary programming.

There are major firms that have large scale applications that are capable of getting sentiment analysis, as well as use what's going on socially to make winning stock picks. My access to Twitter's data is free, but I only get to make a small number of requests to the service per minute. Large companies who need to have the program constantly accessing Twitter's data for information have to pay for that unlimited access.

Revenue from data licensing and other grew by 9% in 2020, in comparison revenue from advertising services grew by 7%. The rise of the meme stocks has shown that it pays to be plugged into social media, and firms that aren't yet will likely be by the end of Q1 2021. There may be no better tools to judge sentiment than Twitter and Reddit.

It's Twitter In The End

I've always been a believer that when it's all said and done Twitter will still be standing. It will never have the growth that Facebook had in its heyday or TikTok has now, but I think it will survive.

The value of Twitter rests on my ideal that Dorsey and company have not really figured it out yet. Yes, they make advertising money, and from the start getting users and throwing advertisements at them has been the way that social-media companies make their money, but I'm not sure that's the most profitable business model for Twitter, or the way they're currently doing it is the most profitable way for them to do it. But I have to admit, I have no ideas of how to do it better.

The subscription model is being tested by Twitter now. I've rejected the idea in the past because I believed that all that I loved on the platform would be put behind a paywall, but the company thought of something better, but not that original. Twitter is testing a feature that will allow Twitter users with large followings to charge their followers for exclusive or additional content, which is the Patreon business model, but now on Twitter. I'm eh on the ideal, I don't love it, I don't hate it, but I will follow it closely to see how it goes.

I remain a big believer in Twitter. I wrote about the company in July 2019 , and I advised anyone who would listen to buy the pullbacks. I feel the same way in 2021, buy the pullbacks with optimism that Twitter's management is going to really figure out how to maximize the platform's earning potential.
