It's 2:30 am, you haven't eaten all day, and the desk representative just threw down a smoke bomb and ran off. Good thing you've got a can opener.

There you are, trapped in a strange city because some snort computer jock entered your name as "Matlidar" instead of "Matilda R." Now the security guy says you can't go through the checkpoint, because the name on the ticket doesn't match the name on your I.D.

On top of THAT, you've dropped your wheeled bag and watched it roll two feet over the line. Right where the security guard says you can't go. Wasn't that where you had your wallet stored? Sigh. No dinner for you tonight. Unless...

If you had a Kuhn Rikon Can & Jar Opener Set in your back pocket, you'd have two things. One: a very large pocket. And two: a fast way to open jars, bottles, cans, and other food-storage devices that can be picked up on the cheap. Instead of a hungry night sleeping on a tile floor, you could be sitting on a sidewalk eating cold refried beans with your hands! Sure, it's not a night at the Ritz, but you do what you've gotta on the cold, mean streets.

Naturally, once you're safely home, the Kuhn Rikon Can & Jar Opener Set will be no less helpful in your kitchen. But where's the drama in that?
