Folks, I found the PERFECT black walnut cracker. It will apply just the right pressure to crack walnuts and remove all the kernel pieces without scattering them across the floor.

Super easy to crack walnuts. And does double duty around the home shop – assuming you have one.
I’ve bought at least a 1/2 dozen walnut crackers over the past 20 years and they all eventually broke. This one will not break.
