I don't have trouble with nutcrackers, but it is quite possible that if you
close them too hard you will smash the kernels. Try being a little more
gentle when you are pressing the handles.


That is often easier said than done. I've often just increased the force
a little, nothing, so increased a little more then wham - pile of mushed
pulp! I think the secret is to get nut crackers with long handles so you
can apply more leverage but in a controlled manner.
