Abstract: An egg shell-piercing device pierces an egg shell and includes a combination skirt-handle construction and a pointed, shell-piercing member. The skirt-handle construction includes a skirt portion and a handle portion. The skirt portion has an inner concave surface for receiving a convex contour of an egg shell. The inner concave surface has an inner surface depth and a threaded female structure. The shell-piercing member has a pointed end and a threaded end. The threaded end is threadably connected to the skirt-handle construction via the threaded female structure and includes a shell-piercing length. The inner surface depth is greater than the shell-piercing length. The inner concave surface receives a select egg shell and the shell-piercing member pierces the select egg shell as it is received.
