For everyone who comes here to learn how to use the thing it doesn't start until 2:24 you are welcome

Had I not seen you successfully use the thing I was sure it could not be done. The instructions that came with it were useless and I took ~10 minutes my first time, before I watched the video, getting just enough slack so I could tap the rest open with a little wall hammer. Thank You!

This safe-cut one costs about $18, which was $4 more than the other modern one shown in the video. I’m so glad I picked this one, the safe-cut works like magic, and the lid came out with the opener itself. Very clean and neat! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you for showing how to use a side cut can opener.

I picked up one from Walmart about a year ago. It works great but since I don't use it often, I spend a good 5 minutes trying to figure out the correct placement for operation 😄 I was raised in a 70'/80's household with the mandatory electric can opener. Funny how they're almost obsolete now.

I think we’ve gone thru like a dozen can openers. They just don’t make them like they used to. Time to try a safe-cut. Thanks!

Thank you for this tutorial I have both kinds of can openers. The old kind kinda stopped working and I didn’t have any instructions for the other kind but thank you again I was able to use it.😊

I just bought one of these. Excellent. I find they are a little harder work, but worth it.

Nice video I got to try one of these. They seem to work better then the older style ones. Thanks for posting

I just ordered one from Amazon. Can't wait to try it. Thanks for the hint about turning the can upside down when one has a pop off can. Just wrestled with canned abalone that started to open and I didn't have the strength to get it off. :-)

I am flabbergasted 😂😂😂I almost threw mine out.

My god I just wanted to open a can not story time! Yes thank you, I got the can open.

Acquistato recentemente, ma ancora non ho imparato😅 dal tuo video forse ho capito perché... cercavo di aprire dalla parte della linguetta che ha la scanalatura più profonda, proverò dal lato opposto. Grazie per l'idea 😊

Just want to say thank you for teaching me how to use this (flipping the can upside down) I was going insane thinking i couldn't do it

I want one of these. Seems to be a good can opener. I got a tubber ware can opener & it does well but id like to have this one also. Thanks for sharing & the info

Trouble is it leaves the side of the can soft or easily caves in & bends. Can't put can topper on the can.

Thanks!

Subscribed!!! Nice summary in a nice articulate style.

there great can openers i use them to make hobo stoves tinder boxs out a way to make a make shift can cook pot to boil water for survival its truly the ultimate survival tool no one talks about it my unsung hero

This is good & useful content. Great work!!!

well explained thanks.

I felt so stupid when I had to go online to figure out how to use one of these type can openers. Still have trouble with them.

Nice video. You can also flip your first can open 90 degrees putting the twisting handle on top of the can and cut the side off just like your safe cut version. The Swing-A-Way brand is best and have used for 40 yrs. $10 and lasts.

I love the safe cut can opener. It has been a very good addition to my kitchen!

i used one the other day.. its life changing! my pantry is starting to be lonely w all the cans i done used

I use one of these to cut the can of baby formula to put it in a larger container. I'm able to get every bit of powder out this way versus having some left at the bottom due to the lip of the can.

I got stuck with one of these at a rental condo on vacation & could not for the life of me figure out how to use it or the Keurig. I also can't figure out the Single Wheel, Bunker, Claw, or Manual openers.

Cans also changed from the original. They used to he made of tin which was way safter than the modern steel can...

Steve-O's looking good these days!!! bless up :)

Unfortunately many cans use a gummy sealant which gets exposed when you open a can with the side cut.

How long does it last? All my can openeders last 2 months average and I only open maybe up to 2 cans a week. They all start failing. Teeth start wearing out then you have to squeeze harder and harder until it's completely dead. These new ones you are talking about, I've read the reviews on Amazon, and people say they start failing after 3-4 weeks. So if this also a problem with this style, what other option is there for a can opener that will last a year or more?

most of your regular can openers will also work I don't know if you know that

02:24 it where he shows how to use it

I just bought one this day and so hard and no signs if its cutting.... Gone tru the rotation not opening it

Beware of can openers that leave tiny metal spikes.

My girl bought one and threw away our old one… worst decision ever. Horrible product doesn’t work on any cans I’ve tried. Came here to see if maybe I was doing it wrong. Nope I did it exactly as shown in the video.

I am really trying to work this thing, but nothing is working!

yeah i still can’t do it

You've been using the first can opener the wrong way what makes it easy fo the other product to look better.

Mine must be absolutely broken. It not only is so hard to get started, it’s inconsistent and frays the can

Link for can opener

Unfortunately doesn't work on small cans. Still no access to the soup I wanted I like the concept doesn't work on all cans

yeah mine does not work

I think our one has a design fault, I tried using it to open a tin/can of Tuna, but it didn't cut through... Instead it just ended up making the top rim of the tin/can really quite sharp. My mum almost cut her finger on it

Regular can opener does the same thing

Skip to 2:30 for the actual content

It just spins in place

mine will not cut

My electric version of the side cutting opener produced many thin metal threads today. They were very thin and had broken into lengths from about 1 cm to 10 cm. This was a can of beans and they were difficult to see. Beware. I am going back to the a top cutter.

@2:40 until he gets to the point where

This leaves the can weak at the top and not as good for can lids

I've been the head ccok around here for over 40 years. I've been trying for TWO YEARS to figure out how to use a side cutter opener. No luck. Your video did nothing whatsoever to explain how to really use the thing. I do it exactly as you appear to be doing it. I may as well try to open it with a yoyo. thanks anyway. I guess I'm just missing something here.

I just bought one of these and they suck. I went around the can 5 and 6 times and couldn’t get the lid off even with pliers. Doesn’t cut all the way through. 👎🏻

* A regular can opener can cut the lid at the the side !

Dude, you've got to add a warning for stupid people like me. Had just bought one of these tin openers and came to your video to see how to use it. My tin was like yours, though the tag had fallen off. Saw your tip to open it on the other end and thought that must be why it's not working. Had just finished opening the other end when boom! It all fell out the bottom. Guess I know it expect it next time at least!

😢 Be aware that side-cut openers often leave tiny metal shavings in the food, which can be deadly or even fatal if swallowed.

Skip to 2 minutes and 17 seconds

This the hardest can open I ever bought. I bought whole bunch of can soup’s now I got to go get a real can opener because this one isn’t working

All lies! The safety can opener I got doesn't work at all!! I'm sticking to a can opener that actually works!

We’ll how the hell do you use it??? You didn’t even explain in the video. I can’t figure it out.

Or maybe, just maybe cut from the side with a regular can opener… like they were designed to do!!!!

Crap description

😂 Dude is overacting as bad as William Shatner😂

I didn’t need the history

Hate old kool cans 😡

I'd love to see one of these garbage channels read the instructions and actually showcase the "take off" feature the openers have - you shouldnt need to take it off the can, it should come off with the lid

Unbelievable .. over 6 minutes just to show how to use a side-cutting can opener. Something tells me that it took about 5 minutes longer than it could have to explain how to use this style of can opener. Why would you do that? Maybe you don't have enough to occupy your time so you thought you'd needlessly waste some of our time too?

This is a worthless piece of junk. Doesn't work. Don't waste your money!

Dude Cut to the chase Shoulda been a 2 min video, tops Your showing something that has 2 steps Place on lid Turn Show it, end it Good gawd

These are trash it would open my red gold cans.
