Oyster Knife

[Brackish Life]

I am working on some designs for a custom-made oyster knife made from coastal NC materials. This picture is a sample I made from a cedar branch that washed up on the beach of our river house. I took the blade out of one of my old oyster knives.

Does anyone know a supplier of oyster knife blade blanks?

That looks to be a pretty simple design. I did some searching and was unable to find raw blades of that style although the wider shucking pattern I seem to remember being in the Jantz catalog at one point.
