Can this lancet be used for other shellfish?
It’s specially designed for oysters, but it may also be used for clams and similar bivalves that require a short, sturdy blade.
Will the wood handle wear out over time?
The hevea wood is durable, but for longevity, it’s best to avoid prolonged exposure to moisture and to apply oil occasionally.
