Fukube Oyster Knife
A rustic-looking knife crafted with rare expertise
Stainless steel oyster knife with a handle coated in natural Urushi vegetable lacquer. Insert the tip of the blade into the tightly closed shell, open slightly, then slide sideways to cut the adductor muscle.
Founded in 1908 on the Noto Peninsula, a rural area of Ishikawa Prefecture, Fukube Kaji descends from the tradition of rural blacksmiths who produced and repaired a wide range of everyday tools, including knives, agricultural implements, and fishing and forestry tools used locally. The workshop’s gourd-shaped logo is inspired by the founder’s nickname, “Hyotan Kaji” (the gourd-carrying blacksmith), because he was a heavy drinker who always carried a gourd of sake at his waist.
