R. Murphy Wellfleet Oyster Knife

For those of us who like instant gratification -- and the taste of summer all year long.

Striking, sharp, weighted, and contoured to fit perfectly in your hand. This is no ordinary oyster knife.

The blade: 2 5/8 inches of hardened, ground, and polished high carbon stainless steel.

The handle: Bubinga (African Rosewood), brass-riveted, and vacuum-infused to increase stability and water resistance.
