The poor description of this products lead me to believe these knives could be used for all types of shellfish. The blades are thick which would make for a decent oyster knife; however opening a clam with these would be impossible. The blade is as thick, if not thicker, than the blunt side of a butter knife. The blades do not tapper to a finished edge like a true clam knife. The blades have an overall unfinished quality to them, as if the manufacturer skipped the finishing process.

Just received 2 days ago and tried on a dozen of oyster yesterday, it works pretty good. But for a newbie, I suggested to go on YouTube to watch a few chefs for their tips, you will find it works even better. Not sure how it works on clams

I don't know what constitutes a "good" shucking knife, but these made out right. Went out with friends who do go to the oyster bays often, and they said these knifes were good.

The blade itself is not very weak/thin either. It's definitely thicker than the conventional butter knives found in homes. The blade doesn't bend much at all it may deflect a bit, but you could definitely bend and permanently damage a butter knife much easier than you could bend this blade.

The only negative I could find was that the blade guard is separate from the blade itself; the blade guard can wobble a little bit, and I believe during shucking, the blade guard may have been scratched. After washing the shuckers when I got home, I noticed a bit of rust on them a few days later. Not a lot where durability would be drastically compromised.

For the rust I rated this 4/5 stars, I removed 1 star (it would be a 1/2 star if it were allowed), but mainly for a "heads up" for those considering.

The widest part of the handle measures 3.5" in circumference

The handle length measures just barely 4" from bottom to knife-guard/plate

the blade-base is 5/8" (a little over 1/2") wide

the blade length is just barely 3" long.

Bought this shucker for my husband for his birthday because he was using a screw driver to open his live oysters. It was better than I expected and much easier to use. I would recommend it to anyone who asks.
