Kuhn Rikon Auto Safety Master Can & Bottle Opener

Kuhn Rikon's Epicurean garlic press remains one of the most useful bits of gear you can have in your kitchen, and we believe their Auto Safety Master Opener deserves a similar spot in your cooking toolkit.

This Swiss-made opener isn't just for opening cans — and it leaves no sharp edges at that — it's a full-on kitchen multi-tool that also includes a bottle opener, a pull-ring opener for tuna cans and such, a soda tab opener (for when you've just clipped your fingernails because the timing always works like that), a screw top opener for plastic bottle lids, and a pressure release lever for opening vacuum-sealed jars.

It slices! It dices! Well, not really, but it does do a lot.

Each aspect of this versatile tool is well designed and super easy to use, and you might be surprised just how often you find yourself reaching for it in the kitchen drawer.
