The Sapelo Oyster Shucker is designed to shuck comfortably, efficiently, and with plenty of torque whether you’re left or right handed. Founder Steve Schoettle designed the shucker with a helpful spoon shaped tip which ensures you’ll enjoy not only the oyster but all of the deliciously salty juices along with it. A favorite of our customers, our oyster knives all double as a bottle opener keeping you where you want to be - front and center at the oyster table. Our chainmail Shuck Guard protects your shell-holding hand from unintended nicks, and it just looks really cool. 

• The Set includes one Sapelo Oyster Shucker and a Chainmail Shuck Guard.
• Hand-hammered tip strengthens the metal for efficient shucking.
• Spoon shaped blade allows you to scoop out the oyster, and all the juices as well.
• Functions as a bottle opener.
• Shucker hooks onto belt or pocket for safekeeping. 
• Chainmail Shuck Guard is dishwasher safe, and works for either hand.
• Use the Shuck Guard as a sturdy scrubber for cast iron pots and pans. 

Why Sapelo?

The inspiration for this shucker is drawn from the shape of the McIntosh oysters found off of Sapelo Island in Georgia’s Sapelo Sound - a place where Steve’s dad, Taylor Schoettle, a naturalist and author, would visit regularly. The oysters, a favorite of his, have a notably longer and thinner shape than most oyster varieties.
