In search of a decent can-opener

<p>We use the Swing-Away at home. We are on our second one but it took many years to wear out the first one.</p>

<p>I still have a Vietnam-era P38 which sits in the coin bin in the car. It is slow, but certainly dependable. The rust is no big deal. Contrary to the legend, it does not seem to get better with age. It works about the same as when it was new.</p>

<p>Pretty soon we won’t need can openers. More and more cans are coming with a pull tab.</p>
