my BRO has a neat little hobby, he buys a bunch of cheap wood handled oyster knives, gets a bunch of metal coctail forks you see in resteraunts, drills out the knives handles, cuts the forks to app 2 " and glues the forks into the knifes handle and engraves the owners name into the handle, so you have the knife on one end to open it and the fork on the other to eat the oyster and it's engraved so the theif knows who he stole it from. sells them for 10$ or gives away as gifts.

What a neat idea, I'll bet it works like a charm, if I was closer to you I would take a look at one for sure. Got any pics?
I love oysters and willl have some tonight actually. They're best straight off the boat in Apalachicola though.
My cousin was getting them out of Charlotte Harbor that were probably the best I have had. They were huge, perfect saltiness, just awesome. We opened one and cut it in half and each half still covered a saltine. I have got to see if he can get some more.
Believe it or not, some of the best oysters I ever had were served at an oyster bar in Vegas, inside one of the casinos. They must of had 7 or 8 different varieties, prepared anyway you wanted. The 2nd best has to be at the wharf in San Diego, so fresh....
