After the recent introduction of the Caputo-Fabrizio derivative by authors of the same names, the question was raised about an eventual comparison with the old version, namely, the Caputo derivative. Unlike Caputo derivative, the newly introduced CaputoFabrizio derivative has no singular kernel and the concern was about the real impact of this nonsingularity on real life nonlinear phenomena like those found in shallow water waves. In this paper, a nonlinear Sawada-Kotera equation, suitable in describing the behavior of shallowwater waves, is comprehensively analyzedwith both types of derivative. In the investigations, various fixed-point theories are exploited together with the concept of Piccard K-stability. We are then able to obtain the existence and uniqueness results for the models with both versions of derivatives. We conclude the analysis by performing some numerical approximations with both derivatives and graphical simulations being presented for some values of the derivative order gamma. Similar behaviors are pointed out and they concur with the expected multisoliton solutions well known for the Sawada-Kotera equation. This great observation means either of both derivatives is suitable to describe the motion of shallow water waves.
