I have an old Swing-A-Way can opener that I bought with green stamps back in the late 70’s. It still works better than any of the modern manual ones.

Never had a problem with my trusty P38. Veterans know what I’m talking about.

I usually keep an extra or two; but I’ve only had to replace one I was using once in 15 years.

I remember my elderly grandmother using one of these until she was into her 80s - then we finally got her to learn the newer type:
