Pry open oysters like a pro with this stainless steel oyster knife from triangle Tools. This professional-grade knife beat out our prior favorite—its solid blade and ergonomic handle makes opening oysters easy, fast and safe. Both the blade and handle are crafted from a single piece of steel, for extra sturdiness; the slim, hand-sharpened blade is slanted slightly to one side, which makes it easier to slip into tight oyster hinges. We tried this on oysters of all different shapes and sizes; it worked seamlessly across the board, effortlessly opening small, large and delicate, breakable shells.

Materials: Stainless Steel, Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastic
Place of Origin: Solingen, Germany

Solingen, Germany: the City of Blades.

For centuries, Solingen, a city in western Germany, has been synonymous with high-quality knives, tools and cutlery. What’s to thank for the city’s blade-making prowess? The city’s copious natural resources. Historically, the currents of Solingen’s rivers provided enough power to dependably fuel the city’s factories and steam-operated machinery, giving the city an edge over other industrial hubs for churning out consistent blades. Nearby ore deposits, forests (for a steady supply of timber), an influx of German and Austrian swordsmiths and proximity to trading hubs, like Cologne, kept Solingen at the forefront of knife and flatware production for centuries.
