Opening scallops sounds like a job for the professional - but with the right knife, you can do it yourself, just as neatly.

Because honestly: a good shellfish deserves good tools.
Why This Knife Changes Your Table
There is something delicious about the moment you open a scallop and the briny scent greets you. You don't want to ruin that moment with an awkward little knife or - worse - a regular kitchen knife that simply can't handle it. The Crafts La Marée Scallop Knife is built for exactly this purpose: the 9.5 cm blade smoothly cuts through the muscle bands of the shell, keeping the meat whole and beautiful. No fuss, no spilled tenderness - just a clean, swift action that makes you feel like a seasoned seafood connoisseur.

The Blade That Makes the Difference
The blade of this scallop knife is 9.5 cm long and made of high-quality stainless steel. That is not a coincidence: that length is ideal for moving along the inside of a scallop shell without damaging the delicate shell. The steel is strong enough to overcome the resistance of the shell, yet subtle enough to keep the soft meat intact. You have control, and you feel it in every movement. Whether you're opening ten scallops for a stylish appetizer or quickly wanting to taste one straight from the shell - this blade lets you do exactly what you want.
Stainless steel has another great advantage: it lasts for years and maintains its sharpness with normal use. Just dry it well after washing, and this knife is always ready for your next culinary moment at the table.
A Handle to Love
The walnut wood handle of the Crafts La Marée Scallop Knife is more than beautiful - it is well thought out. Walnut wood is naturally warm and slightly rougher than smooth plastic, which means it feels good in hand and doesn't slip when it matters. When opening shells, you apply force - and you want a handle that works with you, not one that surprises you.
Moreover, that dark, rich wood gives the knife an appearance that fits a beautifully set table. Whether you're sharing an informal seafood platter with friends or serving a formal dinner - this knife looks good. It's one of those details that your guests may not mention directly, but that makes the whole feel just a bit more complete.
Note: wash the knife by hand and dry it well after use. This way, the walnut wood remains beautiful in color and texture, and this knife remains a staple in your kitchen for years to come.
The La Marée Collection: For Those Serious About Seafood
Crafts developed the La Marée line specifically for people who love fish and seafood - and who believe that the right tools make a difference. La Marée literally means "the tide" in French, a nod to the ocean and all it has to offer. The collection combines functionality with a natural, rugged look that perfectly matches the taste of fresh seafood.
This scallop knife is an excellent addition to your collection if you already have oyster knives or other specialized fish tools - and a nice first step if you want to get more serious about preparing and serving seafood at home.
💡 Tip: How to Open a Scallop Like a Pro
Hold the scallop with the flat side up and protect your hand with a thick cloth or oven glove. Insert the blade of the scallop knife into the hinge point on the side of the shell and twist slightly. Once the shell comes loose, slide the blade along the inside to cut the muscle loose from the lid. Then remove the flat side and use the knife to carefully cut the meat loose from the rounded shell. Done - and it looks good too.
