"Larry, you are the Rembrandt of oyster shuckers".
~ Jamie Wyeth, Artist and Oyster Lover, Coast of Maine

"AW Shucks! has integrated the way we promote raw bars. With this well needed piece of equipment we can shuck hundreds of oysters in a matter of minutes. The safest way to shuck oysters...and a pearl of a buy! Seriously, it has been well used".
~ Robert J. Mancuso, CEC, Executive Chef, The Country Club, Chestnut Hill, Ma.

"The best way to quickly open oysters safely".
~ Tim Pierce, Executive Chef, Samoset Resort, Rockland, Me

"Let me tell you about my life with the AW Shucks! Rarely does anything exceed expectations, but this is one that does. It is well constructed, clean and strong. The blade is like a section of my old farm tractor's bar mower and easy to use. The design of horizontal operation is very important that no "bon" juices are lost. It works well and is quick. Overall, wonderfully great job!"
~ Mike & Yvonne Thompson, Owners of Cuz's Uptown BBQ Restaurant, Pounding Mill, Virginia

"Aw Shucks! is one of the things I can't do without. Quick, easy to use, and safe! Experience is not needed to use the Aw Shucks!..I love your shucker!"
~ Bill Hansen, President, Leading Caterers of America

"Works great, bought a second one for the raw bar".
~ Anita, Business Mgr., Robinson's Wharf, Southport Island, Me

"The AW Shucks! Oyster Shucker is the best thing I've ever had for shucking oysters quickly and safely. No more getting cut up or almost stabbing myself in the hand from trying to open oysters with an oyster knife. Being made of stainless steel, it is easy to clean, and you can shuck a tray of oysters safely in minutes. In your own home with friends around, and you are serious about shucking your own oysters safely and quickly, this is the shucker to own. Thanks for such a fine product".
~ Allen D. Smith, JR., Moore, Oklahoma

"This thing works like a champ…safe, easy…and yes, more oysters per meal".
~ Jacque Touzet, New Orleans, La.

"I bought this shucker for my husband three years ago, and since then we haven't had any visits to the ER due to a sliced hand. We use the shucker all the time and take it with us to our weekend summer home. It allows you to easily open an oyster without the worry of puncturing your hand. This shucker is wonderful – we don't shuck oysters without it".
~ Tricia Kunst, Davidsonville, MD.

"My family and I would like to express how happy we are with your oyster shucker. Doing them with the traditional knife was impossible to keep up with the volume. Your shucker not only meets the order, but we have not had one injury related to shucking. We like it so much, that we ordered a second one for when we run extended specials. Thanks again for a great product".
~ Keith Cipielewski, Owner/Mgr., Siesta Key Oyster Bar, Siesta Key, Florida

"I wish I would have had one 30 years ago. It is the best money I have ever spent on anything! Thank you, I Love it!"
~ Bobby - Guyton, Georgia

"A new, fast way to open oysters safely! This product could open new markets for the aquaculture industry."
~ Peter & Susan McBean, Alluvion Farm, Cushing, Me.

"Finally, a fast, easy, and safe way to open oysters".
~ Bill Mook, Mook Sea Farms, Walpole, Me.

"We are very happy with the design and have had it for two years. It is very easy to use."
~ Phil Koskela, Rocktide Inn & Restaurant, Boothbay Harbor, Me.

"The shucker works as advertised, fantastic actually, as my learning curve to open oysters was 1 oyster. Using the mounted version on a cutting board makes it easy."
~ John Mohr, Muscongus, Maine

"You were right! In the past six months we shucked 9,000 oysters with the AW Shucks! Oyster Shucker. Not one single injury. The shucker worked flawlessly, and it was simple to train our staff... The Aw Shucks! truly gave us the one up on our competition.
~ Todd Mauer, President and new Owner of King Eider's Pub, Damariscotta, Me.

"In the course of our work for an oyster breeding program, we have been shucking oysters by hand in order to "strip" out oyster eggs and fertilize them. This requires a careful but quick hand – we routinely need to shuck and "harvest" eggs from around 200 oysters at a time as rapidly, and cleanly, as possible. In the past this has resulted in long days and, occasionally, self-injury (not being particularly expert shuckers)…The Aw Shucks! Oyster Shucker has helped immensely, making this task much quicker and safer. Wish we had purchased one sooner".
~ Scott Feindel, Hatchery Manager, Darling Marine Center, Oyster Breeding Program, Walpole, Me.
