OXO Good Grips Stainless Steel Non-Slip Oyster Knife

This oyster knife works well and feels solid in hand. I’ve always liked OXO products, and this one didn’t disappoint. It’s my first oyster knife, and I was able to open three dozen oysters with no issues at all. The grip is comfortable and non-slip, which made the process feel safe and controlled. Great quality and a good choice, especially if you’re new to opening oysters.

I watched a YT video on how to shuck oysters and the person was using this knife. I bought the knife and used it just like the YT shucker and it worked great. I have shucked oysters in the past with varying success and mostly frustration over why mine look nothing like the ones I order at a restaurant. This knife has the perfect design, allowing me to separate the shell, detach the oyster from the upper shell, cut through the foot and flip the oyster in the bottom shell just like a pro. The knife has a nice, big handle that is easy to hold. The blade is not overly sharp but seems to do the job well. It feels good in my hand and has a nice balance and weight. Finally, it's not very expensive compared to other knives I purchased to do this task.

Great oyster knife the lttle bend at the tip makes a huge differnece to ease of shucking I did over 60 oysrters in about 45 minutes and is easy on your hand

Nicely balanced. Curved end works well A step up from my standard can opener oyster opener that I used after seeing it as a tip from Julia Child. Sturdy blade, comfortable handle

Works well. Sharp pointed tip makes shucking easy

My first time learning to shuck oysters, this knife made the task easier. I am glad I bought one. The handle is very comfortable to work with.

I only recently learned how to shuck oysters and is something I had never done before. I both read about shucking and also had the guy who sold me some oysters explain how to do it. With a little bit of practice, I got it down, and now can open any oyster in no time at all! What you want to do is the following: -Find the point of the oyster that looks like a V -Keep the oyster with the 'cup' (the non flat side) down so that when you open it, the juice from the oyster won't fall out -Initially, you may want to hold the oyster down with a kitchen towel so that it doesn't slip (I initially did this, though after some practice, just hold the oyster with a gloved hand) -Insert the tip of the blade (with the very tip facing upwards) into the V and wiggle it with some force from side to side (but keeping it flat). - After the blade has been inserted 1/4 - 1/3 of an inch, try to pry it open by turning the blade. If you feel some resistance, push through and the oyster will open, but if it doesn't give, don't push through or you will crack the shell, making it opening it so much harder (I find this is the thing that takes the most practice - knowing when to continue to turn the knife to pry the thing open without cracking the shell... so you'll get this with some practice) - After it has opened, insert the blade in all the way with the tip of the knife along the inside of the top half of the shell and cut all around to cut the muscle that is holding it closed - After you remove the top shell, carefully cut the muscle that is holding the bottom shell to the oyster. Also go all around the oyster with the knife as the bottom tends to stick to the shell, and make sure it is free floating - You're done! Add some lemon and tabasco, and voila! Enjoy! I have to say, I have no experience with other knives, but this knife has worked wonders, it has a comfortable grip, the steel is sturdy enough to get past some strong oysters I have encountered, and the slightly upwards bend of the tip makes it easy to cut away at the muscle on the top of the oyster. All in all, perfect! Highly recommended.

Love this tool. Much easier to open oysters with this tool.

J’ai récemment acheté le couteau à huîtres OXO Good Grips, et je ne pourrais pas être plus satisfait ! Ce couteau est très bien conçu, avec une poignée confortable et antidérapante qui permet une prise en main sûre, même lorsque vous ouvrez des huîtres plus difficiles. Points positifs : • Efficacité : La lame est bien aiguisée et suffisamment robuste pour percer facilement les coquilles, ce qui rend l’ouverture des huîtres rapide et sans effort. • Sécurité : La conception ergonomique et la protection des mains sont vraiment appréciables. Je me sens en sécurité en l’utilisant, sans craindre de me blesser. • Facilité de nettoyage : Le couteau est facile à nettoyer après utilisation, ce qui est toujours un plus après un repas d’huîtres. Points à considérer : • Pas pour les très grandes huîtres : Bien qu’il fonctionne parfaitement pour la plupart des huîtres, j’ai trouvé qu’il pouvait avoir un peu de mal avec certaines huîtres très grosses. En résumé, je recommande vivement le couteau à huîtres OXO Good Grips à tous ceux qui aiment déguster des huîtres. C’est un outil de qualité qui facilite vraiment l’expérience, et le rapport qualité-prix est excellent. Un must-have dans toute cuisine !

I had an older oyster shucker with a straight tip which was lost in our move. We had guests over for seafood dinner one night and live oysters were on the menu; so I decided to order one. This design is so much better than the one I had. First of all it was built with good quality material; the handle has a good grip. Best part is that the angled tip allows me to pry the oysters open much easier which saved time and once opened I was able to use the tip separating the valves by pushing upward through the ligament. Sturdy....Great product and affordable !!!
