Juice tin opener

How do you use it ?  I realise like a SAK opener you hook it under the lip of the can, and plunge down into the top, but then what ? Backwards, or forwards ?  ???

I would say backwards, as the angle of the cutting edge seems to indicate.

Honestly, I find the Juice can openers to be a waste of an implement. I have tried and tried and I stil cannot open a can sufficiently!

Indeed, not a patch on the SAK type.

The LM Juice can opener is the most useless implement I've ever seen on a multi-tool. If you do some grinding on it with a Dremel tool you can improve it but it's still pretty bad.

If that is the case, if ever we EDC a Juice we should always supplement it with P-38.

Nice list Eddie :)

As for the Juice, I've never heard anyone have a good thing to say about the can opener ::)

I usually have a P-51 on me but it's on my keychain. Sometimes my wife takes my car and it's instances like that when I need a can opener. But I don't carry a Juice so I don't worry about it.
