My husband is an avid oyster lover & collects oyster knives. I just gave him this gorgeous oyster knife for his birthday & he LOVES it! My mother in law thinks it is so beautiful it should be jewelry! I agree!
Looks terrific, and feels comfortable and nice in the hand. Haven’t been able to use yet, but blade is like other favorite knife so I can only presume it will be more than satisfactory

We’re glad you’re happy with the Abalone Oyster Knife. We really appreciate you taking the time to leave a review!
It is such a beautiful knife! It feels amazing in the hand and handles so well. I love all the attention that was paid to the details of it from the ergonomic feel of the handle, to the blade point being curved on the bottom side while being flat on the top and just pointy enough to really get in there but not so much to be in danger of breaking. I’m really happy I got this knife.
It’s really nice, but the pics online are just a little bit deceiving… in real life it’s much more acrylic, with just a flat abalone, so it was different than I had expected, other than that, it rocks!
Everyone raves about how beautiful this abalone knife is. I decided I better put it in my pocket when I took a break from the oyster roast table. Opens oysters with ease…sturdy and gorgeous.
This is a gift,so to be fair,will not be using it,but it does seem high quality and is beautiful! Great shipping time ,and looks just as advertised. I have bought from toadfish before,their products never disappoint.thank you!
I've shucked a lot of oysters, and this knife is the best I've ever used. It pops open the shells with minimal effort. The handle is super comfortable and honestly, the abalone detail makes it a gorgeous piece of kitchen gear.
This oyster knife is one of my favorites in my collection. It's truly unlike any other knife on the market and has a really cool story behind it to give back. I started with Dexter and have moved to Toadfish because of the give back misson and this knife is truly unique!
I am honestly OBSESSED with this new Abalone line that they are putting out! It is BEAUTIFUL. When they dropped the 4 piece knife set I feel in love and now the oyster shucker?! I hope there is even more to come these might be my favorite shuckers ever
