That’s some private joke understandable by a small segment of BoingBoing/ LifeHacker readers. By the state of the G/O properties, this segment is getting smaller everyday!
We’ll played!
Once on a teenage camping trip, I had to open a tin (that’s what we call them here, cans are for beverages) with a stupidly large Bowie knife. It’s not as easy as the article suggests and the health and safety implications are… well, they’re there and they’re obvious.
Since then, I’ve never been very far away from one of these…
Despite its small size, it’s a really effective and pleasant tool to use. Wrap the hinged blade in electrical tape and carry it on you keys or on a zipper-pull.

But what if I don’t have a box cutter and can’t open my Pop Tarts or Fruit Loops?
Our can opener belonged to my wife’s mom and is decades old. When I can’t find it because it’s in the same drawer it’s been in for decades I’ve been known to use a knife just for fun.

Just dont forget you have it when you go through a US airport! Although, I’d love to see someone try to open a cockpit door using one of these.
