My Thoughts:

If you have ever eaten oysters that weren’t served on the half shell, let me tell you the work involved is so worth the wonderful treat hidden inside the shell.
Most restaurants have the standard shucker like the Charleston design with a large handle with a strong, short blade that you pry into the edges of the oyster shell to force the muscle to release and open.
However, I have to say that I am impressed with the Stowaway Shucker design because it looks like a pocket knife and can be safely stored when not in use. It also has a bottle opener built into the handle and can be worn on the belt in the case that comes with it.
Both of these shuckers are super strong and really get the job done. Shuckers, although they have a heavy duty blade, they are not sharpened like a knife. They are used to pry open things like oyster shells. My guys use them for lots of other things, but the main purpose for them is to be able to enjoy fresh oysters.
I was not familiar with the folding fish fillet knife until ours arrived. Wow! My crew love it! Most of my crew love to fish and hunt…anything they can, whenever they can sneak off to do it. I learned to use a fillet knife way back in my teen years when my Dad used to make me help him clean fish. I am not an avid fisher but I do love to eat the spoils. My Dad taught me to fillet as a way to involve me in the process of working for your food.
This Folding Fish Fillet Knife is an awesome knife. It has the perfect amount of flex for getting around areas and is so thin that it slices right through for smooth. long cuts. I recently lost my Dad in an accident. He would have LOVED this fillet knife. So in his honor, I am having mine engraved with his name.
All three of these products can be engraved when purchased. Check out the options during checkout here.
