If you're a seafood lover, chances are at some point you're going to want to cook up some oysters of your own, because eating out can get really expensive.
And for that, you need an oyster knife. Unless you're really rich, in which case you probably already have a set of eight 24 carat gold oyster knives and have no need for the knife we're featuring here. Have your butler go fetch those for you and please move on to the next review.
This model by Lamson is inexpensive and made from materials that are known for their durability and longevity.
The blade is stamped with hardened and tempered high carbon stainless steel. It's sharpened to a perfect point at the tip in order to make oyster shucking a lot easier. The oyster blade extends into the handle in half-tang fashion. Nonetheless, even though it's not full-tang, it's still quite durable.
The handle is pure walnut, a material renowned for its unusually hard strength. It's completely natural, and is oiled for protection as well as providing a nice glossy finish to the knife.
And with Lamson's "Sharp For Life" guarantee, you won't need to buy another oyster knife ever again, since it comes with a lifetime warranty.
Now about that butler...
