Why did you choose this?

Had one before but gears(notches)wore down over time. Wish they made a replaceable gear rail.

From reviews read lever action crackers are best for hard nuts

online reviews & demos

We have looked for a cracker and found this was close to what we were looking for to use on our hickory nuts.

Is this nut cracker made in the u.s.a.?

It is made in China.

instructions showing how do you lubricate this cracker?

No sticker on cracker indicating where to lubricate. Talked to some one at Duke Pecan Company ... said to use any kind of oil but recommended vegetable oil. Impressed that we got an answer on Saturday and he was VERY helpful. Said to lubricate teeth up top ... also walked me through issue that I was having with machine. So nice not to be hitting my thumb with hammer while trying to crack walnuts :) bkbrown (an if anyone needs it their phone # is on the box this machine comes in)

Can you crack the outer black hull?

Usually that is peeled off before they are stored for a while to dry. I think this item is intended to crack the dried cleaned shell, otherwise the nutmeats could get pretty dirty and that would not be good

has anyone ever used this nut cracker to crack apricot seeds?

I will be 79 in 21 days. I've ate Black
Walnuts all these years because I love them, also have had many sore thumbs from cracking them. This nutcracker makes nut cracking so easy. I think it will crack anything you might want.

Hello!  Can I assume this will work on Heartnuts too?

Not sure we have macadamia nuts it works for them. However I returned the cracker because it was inefficient, I ordered one from Amazon much cheaper works great.

Does this nutcracker also crack Almonds?

It also works well for almonds, but is especially good for hard-to-crack nuts.

Can this crack indian almonds ?

Hi! We have used our Stark Bros nutcracker on pecans and English
walnuts and it does a fantastic job on either. I can't imagine why you would
not be able to use it for indian almonds. It adjusts for various size nuts and cracked
even the hard English walnut shell without much effort. I highly recommend it.

I am 83 years old, strength not what it used to be , will this work for me?

Susan - it’s hard to say, as I don’t know you, but the lever action cracks hickory nuts easily. It is the most powerful nut cracker that I have used

Is this nutcracker made in the USA?

We recognize that there are other types of nutcrackers that look like the Lever Action but the one we are selling and shipping is indeed Made in China per the packaging of the product.

Are parts Available ?

Not through us Unfortunatley. You may reach out to the manufacture.

Great Nutcracker
Felt it was a bit pricy but I couldn't find one any cheaper that stated it would handle Black Walnuts. It cracks Black Walnuts easily, wife is happy, glad I purchased it.

Better than a hammer!
This works very well on our black walnuts. Much better than trying to crack the walnut with a hammer and either not cracking enough or smashing to bits.

The Right Tool For Cracking Black Walnuts
Black walnuts are extremely hard to crack and this nutcracker is just the right tool. The lever action allows you to apply the right amount of force. It is easy to adjust to different size nuts. I highly recommend.

Works as stated. Was able to quickly work up a bucket of black walnuts and got good size but meat pieces. The ability to trade out the metal bolts to do butternut was a nice addition. Would recommend if you have a lot of nuts to work up.
