R Murphy New Haven Stainless Steel Oyster Knife with Wood Handle

The R Murphy New Haven Stainless Steel 2 5/8 in. Oyster Knife features a wooden handle. The tip is curved upward to catch the top shell of the oyster and leverage against the bottom for easy opening.


This is a Cook's Illustrated Top Pick in which they write: "well crafted, with a simple, comfortable wooden handle that never budged in our hands. It was able to slice oyster muscle without damaging the meat. One shucker noted that it seemed to disappear and become part of your hand."


Serious Eats selected this shucker as the Best Overall Oyster Knife.
