I didn't make this one, but I have the program to produce them.

Should I?  Or is this a dumb idea that nobody wants?

What's your price point for something like this? 

Billet aluminum machined on a $200k lathe so don't come at me with $2.00 or something like that [laugh]

Yes it works with twist off as well.

Does it come with instructions?

In case of emergency, drink?

Yeah that's kind of where they'd probably be I think.

I'd buy one even though I don't drink beer.

A tire would add a nice cushion. It'll protect both the opener and my lily-white hands.

Being aluminum, I feel like the non-twist-off side, the side for popping a cap, would get pretty chewed up by the points on the caps.

You should probably make them out of titanium.  [evil]

Hmmm, production costs...

I think we can engineer this one out. What about a case hardened steel insert on the popper side?
