Do you have one?

  1. Yes, I currently have 5 of them. I wrap one up with a rubber band as my keys go in my pocket. Learned that the hard way!

  2. Hi C-mom!!!!,
    Oh the "John Wayne" aka the "P-38!!" Only have a hand full or so that I got at the "Gun Show" (50 cents a piece or 5 for 2 dollars!!) "And" a hand full from the bottom of the"C-RATS" boxes that we commandeered from supply when I was in the "GATOR NAVY!!!" (1966-1070!!!)... still one on my key chain and the "special one" that I carried on the USS PRINCETON LPH-5 during Vietnam Cruise 1968 on the dog hook I got from the Signal division!! Too many "WAR STORIES" are holed up in that piece... A "Psychic" friend couldn't hold it in her hand!! She dropped it and there was a "Burn spot" in the middle of her palm from it!!!! Go figure??? "Then!!!!!!" I knew she wasn't "Bulls#!++n' me!!!!!

    1. I wish I could have kept my Dad's. I think my brother might have had it. :o)

  4. Yes, it does more than just open cans too. Improvised 'clam pack' opener, screwdriver, pry bar as just a few uses. Handy little thing I keep in my wallet, along with other tools.

    1. Wonder how many people have one laying around in the 'junk drawer' and don't know what it is? :o)
