Client, I guess I'm going to have to man up, because I only have five EDCs and a couple of razor blades. The SAK has a can opener, which I have actually used. The crazyrussian is dangerous to watch, because you start watching and the honeydew projects get forgotten.

Howard, I know your comment was tongue in check, but let's see; life or knife? Hmmmm?

Wait a minute, Clint.  You mean to tell me that guys here who won't even consider batoning their knives through some wood are gonna use their Randall or pristine Queen to open a can?  Perish the thought.

Nice demonstration. But the group here would have....like...ten knives just on their person. LOL!  Great idea and video Howard.

Open a can without a can opener:  The set-up:  You're bugging out to your survival camp.  Your vehicle is packed with goodies.  The roads are backed up for miles with other people doing the same thing.  You get hungry, but your can openers are all at your destination camp, so you pull off the next exit ramp and find a parking lot with those concrete tire bumpers that prevent the front end or back end of your vehicle from encroaching on the sidewalk at fast food places or strip malls, or you could use the concrete sidewalk.  Here's how to open a can of whatever without a can opener.  Now, you may be either smart enough or only like foods in cans with pop tops, but just in case...

I always carry one with a few ball bearings for ammo in my pack.  I use it to scare animals from the bush by shooting small stones ahead of me--works quite well, most of the time.

I would use the bearings to take grouse or rabbits that come by my ground stand--don't want them spooking a deer from my sights.

They forgot how to use them when they hit puberty?

How come no one ever puts a sling shot in their bags?

Comment by Jan Carter on October 20, 2015 at 21:12

actually not a bad idea

Comment by Jan Carter on October 9, 2015 at 13:48

Chris I would say once you get the knife back to where you want it, might not be a bad idea to store near this

Bunch of moisture wicking dessicants out there, but i don't have vast experience with them. The kind you can dry out in the oven seem to be the easiest to use.
