1 USA DESIGNED DUKE NUTCRACKER 4 BLACK WALNUT HICKORY HEAVY DUTY LEVER MODEL 150

Best heavy duty nutcracker under $100...and fast, for hard nuts such as Black Walnut, Shell & Shag bark hickory, butternut etc! 

If you are cracking large volumes of dry nuts…steaming or boiling them for several minutes will soften meats and shells a bit! This helps keep the shells from exploding into so many small pieces..allowing the warm nut meats an easier ability to be manipulated out of the shells ridges.
