Knives with a CAN PUNCH

[woodwalker]

These can punches are pretty unique and rare. I’ve never run across one in person. Cool knives, Skip, Dale, woodwalker, and Don.

Thanks Tim!

If anyone cares, 2,698,480 is the patent number for the "Beverage Can Opener". It's simple genius, just a twisted stamping. J.O'.

Here is one by Bonsa that folds out. The handles are twice as thick as normal to absorb the pressure.

Never seen one like that.

I was confused by "Can Punch", but "Beverage Can Opener" clarified that these were knives with what I always called a "Church Key".

Those soda and beer cans weren't like the "modern" ones. I used to smash empties against my forehead.

You're just a pup, Kevin! According to a Google search, soda was first canned in 1959 (Royal Crown being the first), and pull tabs were patented in 1963.

“Pull tabs patented in 1963”

Well, I guess it was the older pull tab cans I crushed against my forehead. I should’ve remembered that, I also made “chains” with the pull tabs.

Pretty cool info Ike. I was born in 1960 so yep, I dont remember the sodas like that. I did get sodas in fountains for a 5 cents And you could buy a bottle coke (those small coke bottles) for a 5 cents. Some days I feel like a very old pup!!
