Join or Die's oyster knife brings Lowcountry traditions to life

A Lowcountry essential with Virginia bourbon in its bones. Hand-built in small batches, this oyster knife pairs a stout Nitro-V stainless blade with scales cut from reclaimed bourbon barrels—oak darkened by years of aging, finished silky smooth, and pinned with maker’s hardware. It’s the tool you’ll reach for when the first bushel lands on the table. The heavy steel blade will make quick work of any oyster.

Why You'll Love This Knife

Stout blade and handle

Contoured scales and a hand-filling profile for safe leverage and clean pops.

Wooden handle upcycled from bourbon barrels

Handles shaped from reclaimed oak staves—each one carries its own grain and character.

Small-batch craft

Richmond-made with maker-grade fit and finish; no two are exactly alike. Built for oyster nights, tailgates, and porch parties—handsome enough to gift.

As Seen In...

Also Seen In...

A mark of a handmade knife is hand sanding those scratches (produced by grinding the edge) away and leaving a finish with sanding lines that go parallel to the knife's blade. Its a detail that can't be mass-produced.

Join or Die is a small shop and a custom knife maker dedicated to creating handmade knives that are cut above the rest. They make custom handmade knives to fit any need from the field to kitchen or just an everyday carry.

Knife Care

Can I clean this knife in the dishwasher?

You really shouldn't put ANY wooden-handled knife in the dishwasher, as the humidity will harm the wood over time. A warm, soapy sponge works best.
