## Description

Review: Essential Tool for Serious Cooks - Love this can opener. I found it after watching several videos where top chefs recommended it as one of those essential kitchen tools every serious cook should own. They weren’t exaggerating. This thing is built like a tank and has no trouble opening cans of any size. It feels solid in your hand, works smoothly, and inspires confidence every time you use it. I like it so much that it earned a permanent spot on my wall-mounted magnetic knife holder, a space I reserve only for the tools I use the most. It’s one of those products that’s simply well engineered and does exactly what it’s should. Don’t overthink it. Just buy it. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.
Review: Simple and works on every can, unlike the usual twist handle openers that strip out. - The browser just refreshed, erasing my review. Sigh. Ok, let's try again. The US Government used to issue a little piece of metal that went on a keychain. Called a P-38, It had a piece that folded out with a point, and was used to open cans of food. There was a notch on the main part that would hook on the rim of a can of food. The point would puncture the top and with working it around the rim and repeatedly puncturing, a can could be opened and the top removed. This opener is Japanese quality, nicely finished and it works about the same. Hook it on the rim of a can of food, rotate your wrist to puncture and cut a groove, then move the opener over a little bit and do it again. And keep doing that until you've gone all the way around. It's fast once you figure it out. No moving parts. Only the point that punctures the can top, so it will probably last as long as I do.

## Features

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What are the handle and blade made of?**
A: While the packaging doesn't say, I'm fairly certain that the handle is either cast steel, or stamped mild steel, while the blade is carbon steel or stainless. This is the most solid and reliae can opener I have ever had. It will probably be in service long after I am gone.

**Q: Can someone submit a video using the device? i've read that directions are in japanese. want to watch it actually working! thanks**
A: This item is just a scaled up version of the U.S. Army P-38 type can opener.  There are YouTube videos of how they operate.

**Q: Is this made in Japan**
A: Thank you for your inquiry.  This item is made in Japan.

**Q: Does anyone really know whether this is made by Korin or some other company called 'Ideal' as it says on the product and the box it came in?**
A: It's made by Shinkousha. The company name is printed in the big, brushstroke-looking font on the bottom of the back of the box. "Ideal" seems like a brand name they use for some of their products.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best manual can opener.
*by M***S on September 25, 2025*

I love this thing. No moving parts, ultimate reliability. Its similar in function to a p-38 can opener, but with this beefy handle. Its very comfortable and works a treat! I would say its the best manual can opener I have come across. It opens cans quickly and effortlessly. It is slower than a crank can opener, but not by much. The blade is stamped out of thick stock and is sharp. I can see this lasting many, many years. It has a bottle opener and a corner to pry with, could be used as a straight slot screw driver in a pinch. On top of all that, the price is so good. I have used worse can openers that cost 5 times what this does. Its my favorite can opener. the only thing it lacks is a can punch, for piercing a can of condensed milk or something similar. So what I do for those is I cut a medium slot on one side of the lid as if i was opening it, stop and rotate the can 180 degrees and cut a small slot for air to get in the can so I can pour. Works well enough. Get this one, you won't regret it.
