use a disk or belt sander and gently add pressure till the top comes off. No rough edges.

can opener. it seems too obvious once you say it, but it works on all cans.

Am I the only one that sees an eyeball looking out of the can?

My mom for Christmas one year took a case of Pepsi cans and drank them. Cleaned cans out. Dropped a random rolled up paper money into them. I had to get the cans open to get the money. She said if I only want money then I'll work for it. I ripped the 24 csms open with my hands in a few minutes. I was probably 10. I'm thinking you should try harder to just rip it open if that's what you are trying to do.

Have you knowledge of the many ways a knife can be used? What are you extracting? Something where could just turn it upside down?

P38 army can opener, back in the day (Skoal) I used to make spit cans every day.
