Swing-A-Way Can Opener

Classic mounted can-opener

It seems so simple and obvious. And I recall when just about every household had one of these somewhere in the kitchen. But now they are rather hard to find. But I still have not found a better or neater way to open cans. Mounts on the wall, the magnet catches the lid. Swings out of the way so you don’t bump into it. Even if you don’t eat much canned food, everyone opens a can now and then. It worked for your granny, it will work for you.
