The Coolest Pieces of Gear We Tested This Week

If you live by any coastline, oysters are a summertime staple—whether enjoyed raw or grilled with nduja butter. But shucking is no easy matter (use our guide for the right way to shuck an oyster in four simple steps), especially if you don’t have the right tool. This shucker features a walnut handle and stainless steel blade designed specifically for shucking New England oysters (the company originated in Boston), but its blade allows you to slide into the hinge of any oyster with ease. We like the crosshatch design on the handle; it lends greater grip and durability. — Brittany Smith, deputy digital editor
