In the world of knives, oyster knives are probably the most underrated. That is, until they are properly sharpened and find themselves in the right hands. Apart from whittling sticks and opening packages, this little one actually has quite a few uses. It's also suitable for oysters. Admittedly, the steel could be better, but what can you expect from a knife that costs as much as a pack of cigarettes? On the plus side: it mounts nicely to most backpack straps and MOLLE. Oh, and older gentlemen with less flexible finger joints will find the grip very comfortable. I wouldn’t exaggerate about wearing it around your neck—it’s quite large, so the wearer will look a bit like a St. Bernard with a barrel ;)
