The Charles Canon oyster knife is handcrafted in France. It's designed for easy opening of all your oysters. It was born in the Charles Canon Dutilleul Industries workshop, located on a former terril (artificial hill created by the accumulation of mining residues), in the Nord Pas-de-Calais region of France. The company has been creating luxury items for many years, using a variety of original, high-quality materials.
This page is dedicated to the Charles Canon oyster knife made from recycled mussel shells!
Blade :
The steel used for the blade comes from central France. It is stainless and contains 0.6% carbon and 13.5% chromium. It is often used in the culinary field, as it is highly resistant to corrosion and wear. As for its sharpness, it is easy to maintain.
It's called full tang because you can see that it extends all the way to the end of the handle. This makes the knife even more resistant and balanced in use. As it is wide, it is also a little more resistant when you use it.
Handle:
The mussels used to make the handle come from a variety of sources: fishmongers, restaurants, etc. They are mainly bouchot or Dutch mussels. The company recycles these shells, then cleans them before grinding and stabilizing them in resin.
The pieces used come from different shells, so each handle is unique! You'll appreciate its iridescent appearance in the main shades of blue and black.
To store your knife, use the solid wood case. You can also give it as a gift to a knife enthusiast!
This knife perfectly blends tradition and modernity, thanks to its strong values and timeless, original visuals!
