Yes, there is!

Hardshell almonds have a rounded edge and a sharp edge. Put the almond on a hard surface with the rounded edge and start hitting the sharper one with a hammer. First softly, then progressively increase the amount of force of the blows for as long as the nut cracks in half.

Be cautious not to hit your fingers!
