A friend and I bought a box of a 100 oysters a couple years ago for the Ole Miss game and easily cracked open every single one. I worked the lever machine and he used a knife to scrape the oyster off of the shell. We charbroiled them and it was super easy. One of the most glutinous things I've ever done.

We were swinging by to wash the boat after getting skunked, couldn't even get fish to take our bait, and we saw the guy unloading the boxes. $40 for a box. Turned out to be a great day.


ETA: I've split a sack with a friend before and we had shucking knives. We were absolutely shut down, both bleeding and hungry. I apparently suck at shucking, but with this tool a chick could do it.

That's what Jacmel in Hammond uses back in the kitchen.

Try doing a thousand with a knife, and no friend and see how you feel.

The only drawback to the tool is that I find sometime the oyster gets mangled in the process.
