Speaking of can openers...I bought one of those battery operated ones you set on the can and then just push the button. The thing works flawlessly. Opens any can large or small. Works on corned beef style cans as well. I was so impressed I bought a second one. Great for arthritis cases, leaves no sharp edges. Kind of fun to watch, it's like a little robot that dances around the can and even shuts itself off. I got the Boajf Electric Can Opener model at WallyWorld.

@debbiechadwick861 4 месяца назад

Wow I never saw this method w the spoon before. When I was younger I used a knife. Neither way would be good now cuz lack of strength in my hand. But I keep manual can openers. The old fashioned beer bottle openers work too but I havrnt seen them for sale in a long time. Great ideas from you. 😊

This video is sponsored by the can opener industry to show us how much we need their products. I actually just had a can last week that a standard turn-knob can opener couldn't open. I had to get my leatherman out to use its can opener. I bought a spare simple blade-based opener just to have around because of this.

I have a handful of P38’s around. Along with a couple of old steel strikers for sparks. I have had them since the 50’s when I was a kid and went out camping in the woods. They’re in my glove box in my truck. I live in CO so I keep a survival bag of several things in case you get stuck in a snow storm. The mtns are real. City people laugh, till they close the freeways and they run out of gas sitting all night.

My grandfather always used his knife to open cans, whenever we went fishing and camping when I was a kid. No gloves, no can openers, and no injuries. Society today is soft AF.

@PracticalPreparedness 4 месяца назад

Any injury in an emergency situation could lead to infection. Something to keep in mind

@helterskelter156 4 месяца назад

@@PracticalPreparedness I’m not advocating for it. Just stating a fact. Also, practice is integral for surviving an emergency situation. That’s why people start fires with a bowdrill, etc. even when a lighter is at hand. So technically, even with a crappy set of gloves and no practice you’re way more likely to injure yourself than somebody like my grandfather, who used to open cans with a knife casually.

@PracticalPreparedness 4 месяца назад

That is a really interesting statement and I'd take practice and no safety gear over the former as you stated!

@davidimreh 3 месяца назад

The best method I've found to open a can if you don't have an opener is to use a corkscrew's "mini blade". It's blunt so you don't need any protective gear and it's super easy to open the can with it thanks to it's grooved blade!

@maxdrags3115 4 месяца назад

@PracticalPreparedness 4 месяца назад

@lukepippin4781 4 месяца назад

Best thing to do would be to carry a can opener in your EDC which sounds crazy, but I have a couple of those tiny military ones, as well as one on my multitool. But there’s always the possibility that you find yourself without your equipment.

@metarugia3981 4 месяца назад

Or, if you don't have a spoon, knife or any other tools, you can just grind the top/bottom of the can on a flat surface, preferably concrete or rock. Grind it for long enough and the pressed metal of the lid will wear away and the lid should pop right off.

@PracticalPreparedness 4 месяца назад

Bingo

@Seamus3051 4 месяца назад

Always carry a military style P-38 or P-51 can opener on my key chain, so have never needed to use any of the 3 methods you demonstrated.. The knife & or spoon seem the most effective , but see a mess as the can begins to leak because of the method used.

@pattiannepascual 4 месяца назад

can opener not something you think of grabbing in an emergency if you have little time to leave your house. Besides, I have gone through so many new ones, they make them like garbage now. i bought a couple vintage ones off ebay, they work great with a little sharpening. one is all metal with a little knife thing on the end, there's a cutout in the metal that rides along the can lid. don't need gloves. i will likely try to find and buy another as backup. the heck with these expensive modern junk ones. I also got one as a gift that uses 2 aaa batteries, rides on top of the can lid and takes takes the top and bit of the can off.i love it but just in case i don't have batteries, the real old ones are the way to go. They will probably outlive us all.

@PracticalPreparedness 4 месяца назад

Right. Last thing I’d think to grab in a panic

@frost8077 4 месяца назад
