I have bought 5 new can openers in the past 3 yrs. The new ones strip out or bend or just brake. I need on of these.

what year did they start canning food in actual cans? what came first, the can / jar opener or did they figure it out in reverse? the first one I believe is a little early

I've often wonder why we still use canning as a method of storing food. it's 2025, you would think there's a better way!

I have a jar / can opener , you twist by hand to open the can. Great to have if you have no electricity, but it’s a challenge if you have arthritis like my mom did.Still was the most valued kitchen necessity 😀😀

why is it that older tools work better than today's tool??? I think that's why you shouldn't destroy, remove, or replace any old tools because who knows one day it'll be more helpful than the new invention

I want the one from 1889 but imagine how thick their cans were back in the day. Everything we have is made out of aluminum foil and Styrofoam

Just goes to show that they built things to last back then because companies had integrity. Companies took pride in their products. We live in a consumer market now because of flat-out greed. So most consumer products for everyday life don't last.

They need to bring these back. They look a lot better. Actually, they work better. Those either the second or fourth one that was super good, but you just had to twist it. Like twist it now like then

I'm curious about the "Fan Favorite" model from 1890. I've done a little research and can't find any information about a can opener like that. Can you identify who made it?
