| Oxo Good Grips Oyster Knife
by OXO
It takes a pretty tough tool to work its way into an oyster, but that doesn't mean that your hands should bear the brunt of the work. The oversized, soft, non-slip handle on this knife allows you to exert considerable pressure without discomfort.

| Oxo Good Grips Clam Knife
by OXO
A mollusk can be pretty darn stubborn, which is why an everyday bread knife simply won't do for opening a clam. This tool has a cushy, over-sized non-slip handle to make opening the shell easier and safer.

Amazon.com Review
This seafood set by Oxo is the ultimate resource when tackling a feast from the sea. With three different shelling surfaces and solid zinc construction, the cracker can handle the job--whether it's wrestling a stubborn crab shell or splitting open a large lobster claw. Its oversize, nonslip rubber handles absorb the tension as you squeeze them. The set of four seafood picks feature a spooned end for scooping and a tined end for picking--so every nook and cranny of your favorite shellfish can be scoured clean. The cracker and picks are dishwasher-safe. Good Grips products are moderately priced and have won the Tylenol/Arthritis Foundation Design Award. --Laurie Notaro |

Makes eating crabs more enjoyable by amazon_4_everything (NY, USA)  5 Stars
May 12, 2009
My husband and I love eating crabs at home but are really lazy about getting out all the meat from the crabs. With tools like these, we don't have to work so hard to break the crab shell/legs and get to yummy bits. Plus, I don't waste as much of the crab meat now whereas in the past, I would have just given up and not eat all of the meat because I couldn't get to it.

A must-have for the seafood lover... by Lorenzo  4 Stars
November 14, 2008
Like most Oxo products, this seafood set is of excellent quality.
It also turns out to be very handy when you need to deal with claws: first you crack them and then you extract the juicy meat with the tiny forks, which have two different tips: a fork and a spatula.
And it also handles the dishwasher very well.

Functional and Stylish! by M. Choi (New York, NY) 4 Stars
July 14, 2008
I cook a lot of Alaskan King Crab Legs so was looking for something to give my hands a break. First of all, these look great, sleek silver with black rubber grips. The crackers feel solid in the hand and are easy to grip. They worked well in breaking up different sized crab legs. The little scoopers make it convenient to get the meat out of the hard to reach areas.
I would have to concur with an earlier reviewer that the package is a big pain to open. I literally had to use a big cutting knife to get everything out. Once you get past that though, nothing but quality.

Seafood set by Friar (Minnesota) 5 Stars
May 18, 2008
The perfect set. The handles provide great grip and comfort. The spoon/forks work well but not as well as expected. Overall a great buy I would recommend.

Works but not great by Mtnwmn  3 Stars
May 01, 2008
The cracker is actually pretty nice, probably 4-star maybe 5. But the forks are mediocre at best, think 2-star. They are surprisingly bulky and have short tines so getting into the good meat is difficult -- spoon end is useless. Okay for the casual user but if you really are into crab and lobster, look for better options.

Nothing mars the presentation of pearly pink shrimp more than unsightly black veins, which are in fact not veins at all, but the alimentary canals of the shrimp. Now anyone who paid any attention at all in junior high biology knows that an alimentary canal is not high on the list of good things to eat. Get rid of them easily and efficiently with this specialized tool.
