Abstract
A coconut cutting device includes a knife having an elongated, straight blade, a handle coupled to a first end of the blade, a base pivotally connected to the second end of the blade via a hinge, allowing the blade to rotate about the hinge, the base configured to stabilize the coconut during a cutting operation, a slot formed within the base, the slot configured to accommodate the blade when the blade is fully rotated towards the base, a downward facing spike coupled to the handle, and positioned to engage the coconut, and, a platform coupled to the base and positioned beneath the spike, the platform configured to stabilize the coconut during a piercing operation.

A coconut cutting device, comprising:
- a) a knife having an elongated, straight blade;
- b) a handle coupled to a first end of the blade;
- c) two parallel bars configured to stabilize a coconut during a cutting operation;
- d) a hinge located on a distal end of the two parallel bars, the hinge coupled to a second end of the blade and allowing the blade to rotate about the hinge;
- e) a slot formed between the two parallel bars, the slot configured to accommodate the blade when the blade is fully rotated towards the two parallel bars;
