The mechanism is as fascinating as its design:
1 Positioning: You place the circular opening over the top of a soft-boiled egg.
2 Pressure: When you squeeze the handles, the inner ring of sharp teeth contracts.
3 The Cut: Those tiny teeth gently puncture the shell in a perfect, uniform circle, allowing you to lift the top of the egg away effortlessly, revealing the perfectly cooked yolk beneath.
