Can opener - P38.5
on: October 21, 2009, 02:22:42 PM
Just some pics of the sheer brute power of the P38.5's can opener. This thing does not take opening cans lightly and it chews through it like it's nothing!

Hey David,

Will that work right or left handed? A lot of can openers are only right handed... >:(

Well...... :-\ I didn't try. The can opener is beveled towards the lip of the can, so it would seem that it's a right handed can opener. I am sure Brain could fashion a lefty version, with custom makers the sky is the limit and they are not held by factors such as "I will need more people who want one before I consider making one".

Ok I did some testing on it using it left handed, I am not left handed so results may very. I was able to open a can with the P38.5 lefty but it was difficult (hurt my hand to hold the tool), not sure if it's because i am not left handed or it's the design (angle of the bevel towards the cutting side. I don't see why it cannot open a can with either hand whether you are left or right handed.
