How to Shuck Oysters with the Opinel No.09
Step-by-Step Technique
Open the blade and confirm it is locked in the open position.
Find the hinge — insert the tip into the oyster's hinged back.
Twist gently to pop the shell open.
Slide the blade along the top shell to cut the adductor muscle, remove the top shell.
Free the bottom by sliding the blade under the meat and severing the lower muscle.
Always shuck over a towel and cut away from your hand. The folding design keeps the blade safe between uses — a key differentiator versus fixed oyster knives.

Beautiful knife, works like a charm
The bubinga handle is gorgeous — the photos don't do it justice. Blade opens smoothly and the lock feels solid. Shucked three dozen oysters with no slipping at all. At this price it's a steal.

Perfect gift
Bought two as gifts, both came in a nice box and looked very premium. My brother uses his every Sunday now.

Great little shucker
Compact, sharp, and the folding design means I can toss it in my pocket for clam bakes. Handle is a touch small for my big hands but the wood feels quality. Very happy overall.

Good but takes practice
Nice blade and lovely wood, but if you're new to oysters the short blade takes some getting used to. Does the job once you find your technique. Fair value for the money.

Fifty years of kitchen tools and this one's a keeper
I'm 68 and have gone through plenty of shucking knives. This Opinel reminds me of the tools my father carried — simple, honest steel and a wooden handle that gets better with age. The hinge is tight and the blade holds an edge. I engraved my initials and it felt like a real heirloom piece. Would buy again without hesitation.

Blade arrived dull
Love the look but mine came out of the box pretty dull and needed sharpening before it would pop a hinge. Maybe a one-off, but disappointing at first use.
