Abstract: A utensil for cracking eggs comprising tongs having oppositely disposed handles pivotally attached to each other having a gripping end, and eggshell-cracking and separating members formed at the opposite distal end thereof, the pivot connection of the handles being positioned intermediate the ends thereof and provided with a biasing spring to keep the cracking and separating members in a closed abutting relationship. An egg is positioned within adjacent supporting rings which are flexibly connected to respective handles so as to be opened together with the separating members, after the egg is cracked, by applying force against the cracking member.
