Developed by R. Murphy, the Damariscotta oyster knife is one of our celebrated New England Shuckers.  Designed for comfort and efficiency, while keeping beauty in mind.  The hand polished rosewood handle is weighted and contoured to fit perfectly in your hand while the pointed, tough stainless steel blade makes quick work of opening oysters. Handcrafted to meet the high standards of professional shuckers, it is perfect for the occasional shucker as well.

The Oyster Guide
"The handles are extremely heavy, and perfectly weighted, so once they slide into your hand they feel like a natural extension of it. The aptly named Damariscotta will basically be inseparable from my right hand from now on. Watch out, bivalves. Resistance is futile." - Rowan Jacobsen, The Oyster Guide

These knives are versatile and work well on most small to medium East, West & Gulf Coast oysters. You will appreciate the quality and workmanship of these “pearls” every time you open an oyster.
