By cutting on the side of the can below the edge, this can opener leaves no sharp edges on the can or lid. The sharp hardened stainless steel cutting wheel stays clean, avoiding contact with can contents, while the lid pliers allow for no-touch lid removal. Approx. 7.5 x 4.5 x 2.25". Hand wash. How to Use: Open the handle and move the can opener against the can, aligning the top of the can with the curve on the top of the opener. Close the handle to begin to cut and turn the knob clockwise until there is a decrease in resistance. Turn knob counterclockwise one turn to release the lid and open the handle to release the can. Use the built-in pliers to remove the lid from the can without touching it, leaving you without dangerous sharp edges. Imported.
