Razor shells (called jackknife or razor clam by the fishermen) is a collective term for various species of shellfish, the most important ones being the giant razor clam and the American, the pod, the grooved and the common razor shell. On the beach, you find the American razor clam the most often. This animal only needs 15 seconds to bury itself completely in the bottom! There are some fishermen experimenting with fishing razor shells commercially.
