ABSTRACT:
A nut splitter is shown which includes a base for supporting the splitter upon a planar surface. A jaw having a cutting wheel rotatably mounted thereon is pivotally mounted on the base and is movable between an open position allowing placement of a nut on the base and a closed position in which the cutting wheel of the jaw contacts a nut. A lever arm has a pivot end which is pivotally attached to the jaw and an oppositely extending length which terminates in a free end which forms a handle for applying force to the jaw to move the jaw between the open and closed positions. An elongate bar is pivotally attached at one end to a point intermediate the pivot end and free end of the lever arm and has an opposite end which abuts a stop on the base, whereby the bar serves as a fulcrum point for the lever arm in applying force to the jaw.
