I’ve found myself looking for a really good can opener. I purchased my last one, a KitchenAid, from Target and I’ve been disappointed in it the whole time. Sometimes it doesn’t puncture the lid right, and it feels like it got rusty kinda fast–not at all what I want out of a utensil I hoped would last for a decade or more (who wants to keep buying can openers? lol).

I’m looking for a manual handheld can opener. I’ve always had the type that opens from the top, but a little bit of Googling shows that there are types that open from the side. I’m in the USA if that matters!

What does Lemmy think?

    I remember these from my childhood, but had forgotten about them entirely. I might actually pick a couple of these up for camping and to try out around the house–would be much better than taking a full sized can opener with me on trips, anyways. Thanks!
