Victorinox oyster knife - precision for delicate seafood
The Victorinox oyster knife with a 7 cm blade is specially designed to open oysters with precision and control. The knife features a compact, flexible stainless steel blade that effortlessly glides through oyster shells, combined with an ergonomic black handle that provides a secure grip even in challenging conditions.
Ideal for both professional kitchens and home cooks who appreciate quality tools for seafood preparation.
Precision tool for oysters
The specially designed 7 cm long blade is developed specifically to handle oysters. The blade's shape and flexibility allow you to find the right entry point and cut precisely through the muscles that hold the shells together. This minimizes the risk of damaging the delicate oyster and ensures a clean opening every time. The thoughtful balance between the blade's strength and flexibility makes the task significantly easier compared to regular knives.
Secure grip in all conditions
The black synthetic handle is designed with a focus on safety and comfort. The non-slip surface provides a stable grip even with wet or greasy hands—a common situation when handling seafood. The ergonomic shape reduces strain on the hand during repeated use, which is particularly valuable for chefs and restaurants serving larger quantities of oysters. The knife's overall length of 166 mm and width of 36 mm ensures optimal balance and maneuverability.
Maintenance and care
To preserve the knife's functionality and longevity, handwashing and thorough drying after use are recommended. The knife is not dishwasher safe, as this can affect both the blade's sharpness and the handle's durability. For professional sharpening services, H.W. Larsen offers this at their workshop with over 85 years of experience. Proper maintenance ensures that the oyster knife remains a reliable tool for many years to come.

Frequently asked questions
How do you open oysters with this knife?
Find the point where the shells meet, insert the tip of the knife, and gently twist to break the seal. Then slide the blade along the shell to cut the muscle free.
Can the knife be used for other shellfish besides oysters?
The knife is specially designed for oysters but can also be used for certain other shellfish, though with less effectiveness as the blade's shape is optimized for oyster opening.
