I've had a bag of pistachios that I've been munching on and find that some of them are not cracked open and I'm trying to figure out how to open? Do mylotters have an easy and safe way of opening them up?

Put them in a ziplock or other bag. Seal the bag and whack them with a spatula or something similar. Use a hammer if that doesn't work.

I'm concerned that I'll smash the but to smithereens and won't be able to eat it...

I'd be scared of cutting my fingers if I use a pocket knife.
