Benefits

A chestnut cutter that scores the shell: A 95 g chestnut cutter with a stainless cutlery steel blade cuts through chestnut shells down to the inner skin. It works on raw or boiled nuts, and the heat-safe body is easy to hold.

A purpose-made cutter instead of a knife or scissors: A kitchen knife slips on the shell, scissors crush the nut and a nutcracker is not made for chestnuts. This cutter is made to cut the shell down to the inner skin, so the nut stays whole.

Take the cutter, cut each shell and wash it: Take the cutter and cut through the shell of each chestnut, raw or boiled. Afterwards, wash the cutter by hand and dry it well, and keep it out of the dishwasher.

The main photo of the chestnut cutter: The main product photo shows the cutter on its own. The slim steel and resin shape looks clean, plain and practical, and it is easy to picture in your hand over a bowl of chestnuts.
