This ingenious nutcracker that, despite it's compact size and unusual appearance, is incredibly efficient at cracking nuts of just about any size. The ergonomic lever handle teams up with an internal lever that runs the full length of the curved, tapered body of the cracker. This means that no matter the size of the nut, full pressure will be brought upon the shell, easily cracking the shell and helping trap broken pieces of the shell inside the tube. Just a squeeze is all it takes. Dishwasher safe plastic. 4.5" tall.
