Drosselmeyer Caretta Shellfish Pliers are a clean and elegant way to eat crayfish, crab and lobster. As any gourmet will know, the tools for this specific purpose have traditionally been limited and awkward. The Caretta's ground-breaking design uses an integrated spring-loaded handle and an open jaw to accommodate any size of claw or leg. The patented double lever action makes it an easy, clean and efficient way to enjoy the fruits of the sea. Just place the claw in the back of the serrated jaw and gently squeeze until the shell cracks. To extract the meat in one piece, simply repeat a few times in different places.
