Description
The R. Murphy New Haven is the go-to oyster knife for serious shuckers, featuring a wide, bevelled blade that pries shells open with minimal effort. The sycamore handle is contoured to sit securely in a wet palm. Hand-ground in Massachusetts since 1850.
Seaside Ritual
A dozen Sydney Rocks on a bed of rock salt, lemon wedges glistening—the wide blade pops each hinge in a single confident twist.
From the oyster bar to a backyard barbie by the water, this is the shucker's trusted companion.
Massachusetts Steel
R. Murphy has hand-ground blades in Ayer, Massachusetts for over 170 years, supplying professional shuckers across the globe.
The sycamore handle is kiln-dried and sealed to resist the salt and brine of a working oyster bar.
Looking After Your Blade
Keep your blade in top nick. Give it a rinse and dry after each use to stop corrosion. Every now and then, rub a thin coat of mineral oil along the blade. Sharpen with a whetstone or honing rod at a steady angle. Store it in a sheath, knife roll, or on a magnetic strip — never chucked loose in a drawer. For carbon and Damascus steel, give it a wipe after cutting acidic foods. For folding knives, clean out the pivot and pop a drop of lubricant in to keep it opening smoothly.
