How To Use Old School Tin / Can Opener 

I'm looking forward to the even shorter version.

Thank you. You saved my Thanksgiving! My can opener broke and this was in my drawer from my grandparents. Hadn't a clue had to you it. Thanks again, Brenda

Thanks man, just started living on my own and this helped my dumbass alot

Gave me a laugh at the very end. I was about to turn it off just as you mentioned the complainy people 😂.

i dont know why i watched this but you a legend bro, "i hope that is short enought for you complaining bitches" i died 😂

The ending makes me want to find the long one. Maybe I'll just complain that this one isn't long enough. What's crazy is...it took nearly forever to even find this one video showing how this type of can opener is used to actually OPEN A CAN. So, thanks for your response to the complainers with the making of this tutorial, thereby providing the means in which to feed myself at least for this one night.

you make my day dude.

thank you. I never saw a longer video, this was at the top of the search list. I'm so glad because i stayed for the ending😆

I love that tidbit at the end lol you ain't lying though people complain about how long you are trying to educate but yet they are coming to you for information

Thanks for the video. Bought one and clueless how to use it. You made it look easy enough .

Short and simple also straight to the point!!..... I like it 😗

This is the best can opener. 0 moving parts. Compact. Doubles as bottle opener. Nothing but this should be used.

Oh my gawd... the end made my day. Thank you!!!!

This is precisely what I wanted to see! I loved the video. And you look like you are left handed! We have one of the safety can openers which I just tried to open the dog food with and, as always, I couldn't get it to work properly. It just open in spots. Normally I am not mechanically inept but... this one defeates me. So now I am glad to find your video for this can opener! Thank you.

Thanks, this is far the only video that i saw uses a can opener similar to the one i have at home.

Thank you so much I just bought myself an ecko one from 50 years ago

i've seen this in our kitchen when i was twelve. now that i'm 30, this is the 1st time i've seen this in action...

LOL Thank you very informative and really needed the laugh.

thanks for this vid, was trying to open a can of corn for a recipe and basically had no idea how to use this one until now

Proud of you 👏 Ima buy one now

U saved my lunch man, respect

Thank you for the help! Much appreciated!

This is better than the other can opener

This is still useful in 2023!

I had to sharpen the tip of mine with an iron file but after that it worked like a charm. Thanks.

Love the video especially the last words on the video! 😂

Thanks it helps a lot ❤

Thank you thank you Found this tool in my house but had no clues what it’s for

Hahahahaaa... this is great.. thank you for the laugh.. also yes I am using a can opener like this now that I know how again...

I'm blank. Even the old tools can be shared and very useful. Thanks for user account and RU-vid.

Thanks. I found it in the drawer n didn't know how to use it !!

you just saved this poor student from starvation! thank you!

Actual instruction starts about one minute in.

I CAN FREE MY SAUCE

Awesome, thanks for the laugh

That was awesome thank you. It's funny that people are complaining that your other one was to long. People then fast forward, you are getting something for free.

...on an angle!! Thank you!

Thanks! I have the one from my grandmother's place and didn't know how to use it.

just saved my life😭

Thank you. I was very confused after opening one of these Edit: LMAOOO the ending caught me so off guard

Thanks I just purchased a set of these as my normal ones don't work well on some tins

Fairly short to the point. Great.

Thank you!

how would I open a small can (like a tuna can or something) with this? i can't get the big blade to puncture without tipping over the can

THANKS! 👍 At first I was literally using the wrong side on it (trying to open it like a glass bottle). 🤓

From memory, the small curved blade was used to punch a starting hole into which the big blade was inserted.

Finally i could use this Old model of opener correctly the second Time after I have injured my finger the first time

omg thanks a lot i was home alone and i tried to open a can but i had no idea how to

so usefull thanks, can openers keep on breaking

Big help. Oinksys to you, pal.

Video length was fine, I just always wondered how to use one of them damn things. Anyway, thanks for answering a 30 year old question for me.

Thank you, for sharing

Thanks bro

I always saw the old school can opener and wondered how it actually used. Now I know

I needed this soo bad but I didnt know what to type and I wanted to eat soup soo bad so thanks and imma eat some soup

Best ending ever

I don't even own a can opener like this but always wanted to know how to use one. How long was the original version?

Thanks, haven't seen the other video, but really hate the newer can openers. Had a penknife one I used for 20 years then thought I'd try something new.

Thank you! I just stared at mine for five minutes, wondering why I was so cheap. I’ll just use mine as a weapon or whatever.

i love you

Thanks for your video! You save me Ha🤭

I like this guys negative attitude sub

Funny enough, I learned to use one of these from old Loony Tunes cartoons.

Jeez, I could've watched the entire starwars trilogy before you got to the point!!!

Lol... My question is, what is the smaller hook on the opposite side of the can opener hook? I have something very similar and can only guess that the smaller side is a bottle top opener?? 🤔

I've always considered these the "cartoon" type can openers for some reason haha.

The irony. This is why i love videos with no dialogue. We want to know how to use the can opener. Thats it. Simple.

30 seconds in ... and I'm shouting "Get on with it!"

I've had that thing in my drawer for years but didn't know what it was. My mother gave it to me.

You could start a can opener museum....

I wonder how often in the past people have been injured using these and other style can-openers. Makes me realize WHY we have the relatively painless ones we do...

thanks

Makes a short video to show how to use a tin opener because the other version was too long... Wastes nearly 40 seconds telling us about another video that's too long. #gofig ;)

thank youuuuu

And in the end it was empty! That was a great twist.

The ending lmao

The first one was “too long and rambly” Geeze I gave up on this one after 45 seconds for the same reason.

This video is too short. Lmao 👌 Funny vid haha

You began to open the can just like my mother who also had no idea how "Leverage" works. Bang the hell out of it till you bruise your palm. Put the blade on the inside of the rim and use the backside of the block part to leverage the blade into the can for the initial piercing.

Thx

I still have one

Thanks. Idk why in USA is so hard to open cans.

thx

god bless

i played this in slow motion and im drenched ;D

Bruh u are funny af . Yes it could be annoying watching a long video when you trying to get to the point but how the hell can beggars be choosy

And he scores big on the finish! Lol...

first video I've seen that actually uses the rim of the can to pull the cutter off to the edge, everyone else worms it along the inside leaving a jagged lip about 1/8th or 1/4" of the lid

I guess in the old John Wayne movie, when he said, "Fill your hands you son of a bitches!!!!" ~ He was referring to the old style can openers. [They must not have carried Swiss Army Knives, when riding the Owl Hoot Trail.]

My bleeding thumb thanks you

Way to short.....go in reverse and do again!!!!

Thank you so much, I just bought the one with the corkscrew and was like how the f**k do I use this!? Now how do I sharpen it....oh btw I subscribed ☺️

I got a UK one 1980s still working better than the modern one that go blunt

how can I get this can openers

My weak a*s can’t even hit the blade in😭. Time for an upgrade for my can opener.

Lmaoo the only hard part is getting it into the can.

um... ok wow...

It's very simple and easy to use. I have lost my old one, and I am in search of a new one. Can anyone help me

I have no idea how to use it. My mom said “Just stab the can and cut it” And I still don’t get it. Thanks for the vdo.

Getting awful sick of the knobbed can openers breaking on me all the time, and we have one brand of chili that makes using those hell. I'm getting awful tempted to buy one like this and stop dealing with the bullcrap.
