Vintage 1988 Chrome Plate Crackerjack Nut Ice Lobster Crackers C L Rimes NOS Arthritis Rheumatism

NOS (New Old Stock) This refers to an original product that is from the past but never used!

This is a Unused NOS Chrome Plated 3 in 1 'Crackerjack' Nutcracker made by C.L. Rimes Limited of 5 Zoar Street, Morley, Leeds, England and comes complete with original instructions for use; this particular box contains one of the very last Crackerjacks to be produced by C.L. Rimes Limited in 1988 just before the factory closed down. 'Crackerjack' Nutcrackers in our opinon are probably the best nutcrackers in the world, very solid, using a patented ratchet mechanism that was first patented in 1947 that makes crushing nuts a dream; even suitable for people with arthritis and rheumatism. The nutcrackers can also be used for Crushing Ice and Opening Crab and Lobster Claws to get to the sweetest meat. All Crackerjack nutcrackers are very easy to date (apart from the very early models), as the ratchet bar is cast with the date of manufacture, in this case - 1988, the earlier models are also cast with the patent details for the UK and USA. The nutcrackers work by placing the Nut between the ratchet bar and the head of the crackers, then squeezing the handle until the nut cracks, easy!, to re-open the gap just push ratchet bar down without squeezing the handle, this is described in more depth by the instructions, which also include a section on how to get the best from different nuts (Please see all Photos) The Nut Crackers measures 7.5" in length and are in As New Conditon. There is a charge of £3.00 to all U.K. Residents (1st Class Mail Only, others P.O.A), we will also ship Worldwide no problem, check below for price on Postage.
