How to Shuck an Oyster

There's no need to be intimidated! Follow these simple steps to successfully shuck an oyster.

Shucking oysters may seem like a daunting task, but it’s actually quite simple with a bit of practice. All you need are three simple tools: a cutting glove for safety, clean towel, shucking knife, and of course some delicious oysters. Once you get yourself a nice oyster, you want to make sure you wipe it down a little bit, get any extra sand or grit off of it so that when you open it up, you don’t get any of the sand or grid inside your meat or any of the oyster brine.

As you can see, we have our round side which will be our plating vessel, and you have your flat side - this part will be discarded. Place the round side down. Find your hinge point. Insert your shucking knife. With a little bit of pressure and a wiggle, you should be able to get it partially popped open. There we go! Once you got it popped open, you remove your knife and get it wiped off so that you don’t get any extra sand or grit inside, contaminating the brine or meat.

Then go ahead and continue around the sides, giving yourself a wiggle as you go to detach the flat side from the round side. You can go ahead and run this knife across the top, releasing the abductor muscle from the top portion of the shell. And now you can discard the top portion. Now you can detach the bottom portion of the abductor muscle and give it a little flip, maintaining the brine. And now it’s ready to eat.

Now it’s time to plate. Once ready, plate it up with some spicy cocktail, some mignonette sauce, a little horse radish, and maybe a lemon wedge. And enjoy!

This oyster knife is very durable. It is pretty heavy as well. The heavy duty handle makes it easier to grasp and maneuver the knife that much better.

I love oysters. This oyster knife has made me a professional oyster opener. The knife guard saves me from going to deep and cutting my hand on the shell. This is my favorite oyster knife.

Having recently expanded to some seafood offerings, we went out in search of additional equipment. This knife is cheap, easy to clean, and surprisingly effective. One of the best value knifes we have found.

Perfect simple oyster knife. Easy to hold even when wet, cleans well, and most importantly opens oysters. No reason to spend more unless you just want it to look pretty.

For me personally, it's a little difficult to hold but the weight is nice and the blade is WICKED SHARP. I ordered two knives; one for myself, and one for my parents. It's been well-received by both parties.
