Any company that ships goods would do well to study the coconut. There is nothing, and I mean absolutely nothing, as well-packaged as a coconut.
I've watched videos of people husking coconuts with machetes, and even with their teeth if the coconut is old and dry. However, I'm convinced they are all AI-generated fiction. Opening a coconut is dang hard. The "nut", that is, the "meat" and "milk", are all ensconced in a nearly impenetrable fortress of cushion and casing. God packages things the right way.
Even though I use a handsaw, flatbar/crowbar, and cordless drill, as well as a good deal of muscle, it's hard to get into them thangs.
I cut three vertical slices. This is not easy. The fibers inside quickly bind and grab the saw blade, as if the say, "Nope! You ain't gettin' in here buddy!"
A flatbar really helps to peel away the husk. This seems like a major victory, and it is, but the fibers do not give up the ghost easily. It takes a lot of ripping, muscle, crowbarring, more ripping, sweat and muscle. It's hard.
Eventually, the "nut" is revealed. Two small holes drilled in the nut allow for pouring the "milk" inside. I got over 8 ounces with this one. Oddly, a coconut is not a nut and it has neither milk or meat, though we use those three words anyway.
Finally, there is the meat. The best part of opening a coconut is cracking it open. Normally, a swift smash on a hard surface splits it right in two. This time, I got thirds. Then, a coconut doesn't give up its meat easily. The white flesh needs to be carved out with a sharp and string knife. But, the payoff is terrific. There is nothing better than fresh coconut meat. The stuff that we buy in stores is nice, but it's not even close to fresh coconut. The proof of work of opening the nut is well worth the payoff.
"Nope! You ain't gettin' in here buddy!"

It’s absolutely worth the effort to open a coconut just to savor that refreshing water.
Para abrir un coco, yo primero busco el ojo que es más blando, (sabes que tiene tres ojitos) lo perforo y le saco el agua. Luego el coco, lo coloco sobre la llama de la cocina a fuego medio, hasta que se revienta solo. Cuando eso ocurre, tomas tu cuchillo, y extraes toda la pulpa, con facilidad. Te deseo suerte y así no usarás tantas cosas para abrir un coco. Saludos y cariños.
The hardest part though is getting through the husk and down to the 3 little eyes. I always picture a mouse because it looks like a fuzzy mouse two eyes and little mouth.
