A specialised knife for shucking oysters, also handy for cheese. The 73 mm lens-shaped blade is AUS-8 stainless steel (58–59 HRC), with a black TPE handle.
The details
The Samura Pearl oyster knife is a specialised tool for opening oysters, with a 73 mm blade and a black handle. Its lens-shaped blade slips easily between the shells, and the form-fitting handle lets you shuck with confidence and speed. You can also use it for cheese.
The blade is made from a single layer of AUS-8 stainless steel, hardened to 58–59 HRC. This hardness is a practical balance: the edge holds up well in regular use, and you can restore it on a whetstone without much effort. AUS-8 is a durable, corrosion-resistant stainless steel, and it stays in good condition when you wash and dry the knife soon after use.
The lens-shaped blade has a sharp tip and a thin, curved edge. The shape is designed to slip between the shells of an oyster, so you can work the tip in and prise the shell open.
The black handle is made of TPE, a thermoplastic elastomer that is soft and comfortable to hold. Its form-fitting shape and non-slip texture are designed to give you a secure grip, even when the handle is wet. The knife measures 197 mm overall and weighs 120 g net.
Before first use, rinse the knife with hot water and wipe it dry. After each use, wash it by hand with non-abrasive materials and wipe it dry; a dishwasher is not recommended, and the knife should not be left in the sink for a long time. Cut cheese on a wooden or plastic board, never on glass, and store the knife in a brush block or knife holder where the blade does not touch metal items. Use a honing rod between sharpenings, and sharpen on a whetstone at the original factory bevel angle of 15–17°.
The Pearl was conceptualised by hand out of clay and launched a new generation of oyster knives designed for efficiency. The Pearl collection offers the same knife with other handle colours, and like all SAMURA knives, this one comes with a 2-year warranty.
