ABSTRACT:
A nutcracker for simultaneously cracking a plurality of similar nuts in a single discreet operation provides a five sided box-like base defining a chamber having an open top, carrying a rigid bottom plate bottom and defining a slot in the front side extending downwardly to the bottom for nut shell removal. One or more spacers configured to fit within the cracking box chamber above the bottom plate, defining similar medial orifices and having different vertical thicknesses are stacked on the bottom plate to define a cracking chamber having a depth of eighty to ninety percent of the average height of nuts to be cracked. A striker plate having a non-resilient body with peripheral configuration to cover the orifice of the spacer and an upstanding handle manually impacts on the uppermost spacer to crack nuts in the cracking chamber.
