White handle kind with the shorter blade, 3.5 inches, I think.

Thanks. Was hoping for a brand.
Time for a new one.
I definitely know some brands are better than others because I've seen some that the blade gets chipped and jagged.
Others seem indestructible.

I like Dexter Russells, but have some really old ones from my dad that have the wooden handles that after 30+ years are still money.

If you find one that makes you wear a glove and prevents you from getting drunk while shucking, get it. I gotta nice lil scar from age 18, cause the knife I was using let you drink a lil much/not use a glove.

The LAST thing my dad told me before he left that party was "look, if you're going to sit here and drink/shuck oysters all night, put a GD glove on".
