Cracker only, or All-In-One?
A Nut Buster cracker cracks and extracts the nut meats in one process. It comes in Small, Medium and Large, and it handles any size pecan without adjustment.
An All-In-One adds our sheller and air separator, so shells and meats come out separately. It also has an extra hopper for running shelling only.
For pistachios, hazelnuts, apricot pits and small pecans (sizes 4–6), choose an Adjustable model. For black walnuts, butternuts, macadamia and pili nuts, choose the Black Walnut Cracker.
