Hand-Forged Oyster Knife
Join or Die's oyster knife brings Lowcountry traditions to life
Brent Stubblefield forges these in Richmond. The blade is the same on all three — Nitro-V stainless, heavy enough to make quick work of a bushel, finished with a brass guard and mosaic pins.
The handles are where they differ.
Bourbon Barrel — staves from spent casks, the oak gone dark from years of aging and the char on the inside.
Tobacco Barn — red oak pulled from a hundred-year-old barn standing on Brent's own property in Virginia, stained with leather dye to bring up the grain.
Black Walnut — figured walnut, finished silky smooth.
Three handles, all of it wood that was headed somewhere else.
