Razor clams, also known as razor shells, are shellfish with an elongated, thin shape and a distinctive serrated edge. They are renowned for their juicy and slightly sweet taste and are often found in sandy coastal areas and shallow waters. They are mechanically harvested in Dutch waters, while in other European countries such as Scotland and Ireland, they are also hand-harvested, and the fishery is MSC-certified, indicating sustainable fishing practices.

Razor clams are an excellent source of proteins, vitamins, and minerals, including iron and calcium. They are widely used in Mediterranean and Asian cuisine, where they can be steamed, grilled, baked, or eaten raw. Due to their versatility, razor clams are a popular choice for seafood dishes and can be added to pasta dishes, soups, salads, and served as appetizers
