ThomasPowers Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 When I interviewed for my current job working IT at a university; I specifically asked if I could carry my SAK on the job; my Boss told me that "It was expected of me!"

Frosty Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Oh come on, carrying a cinder block around isn't a problem is it? I got most everything but can openers searching SAK. Would someone link me please? Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jealdi Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 I'm thinking SAK is Swiss Army Knife. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Ah! That sound you're hearing is my palm impacting my forehead. I haven't carried a SAK since I gave one away in jr. high school for not holding an edge and being a too large lump in my pocket. An Old Timer Cattlemans has been my EDC since losing my Buck folder in Boy Scouts. I carry a P38 in the bush they'll work as a spark striker too. Thanks, Frosty The Lucky.

pnut Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 P38 on my keychain at all times. I don't have the data to load the video but you can open a can just by vigorously rubbing the lid across a rough surface. Is that what is in the video? My curiosity is killing me.

Glenn Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 You’ll need a rough but flat surface like concrete or a sidewalk. Turn the can upside down and rub it across the surface quickly. Then turn it around and press the can from both sides. If you did it correctly, the lid will pop right off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
