Since this is close to the Netherlands we are able to catch most of our razor clams ourselves. After we have caught them we depurate them. This means that they are kept in clean and salt water to spit out the sand. In this way you will not have sand between your teeth when you eat the razor clams. After the razor clams are depurated we freeze them to keep them fresh. As a supplier we sell our razor clams with their shell. wholesale razor clams europe best suppliers
