Cool or Unusual bottle openers

[biochemedic]

Wow, I had no idea the breadth and depth of bottle opening variety! (WTF, Kangaroo scrotum? Not to say I don't want one, but seriously, WTF!)

My favorite is from Bison Designs, they have a bunch of cool openers...this Figure 8 "Beer Belay" one stays on my key carabiner with me all the time (just in case, you know...)

I'm an electrician.

We've been keeping compliant with NFPA 70E at our firm (I'm in critical power - UPS' and the like); that isn't electrically insulated, is it?

Not the best picture, but my Dad makes these for black smithing demonstrations.

There are some really cool openers in this thread, but IMO this is the best by far.

 

[captainkirk83]

Found in my dads toolbox unused for years wooden handle and rusted metal end

 

[Mongrel]

This one just came in the mail today. Thanks Deschutes.

I have a Homer Bottle opener that talks.

MMMM Beer...(sound a of bottle opening) Woo Hoo!

Had a non-homer one that said "Oh, Yeah! Time for a beer!" years ago. Thing got a little overused and annoying so I gave it to my father. Randomly you will close the drawer it is in and hear him slur it about 4 times before stopping. I am honestly surprised that the battery is not dead yet.

 

[Remmy]

Mine aren't cool. I have a NY Knicks opener and a Quebec opener.

 

[2thGuy]

I don't have a picture of it but my friend has one that is made out of a kangaroo, scrotum and testicles. Complete with all the fur.

Here is my favorite. This is a stock pic. Cast iron and heavy enough to use as a weapon in a pinch.

We have one just like that

 

[JimRausch]

This one is my favorite.

Oh Yeah, Got to love the'Man Ring'

 

[JTTX80]

Got this from my sister in law for Christmas.

[julioardz]

When I'm not drinking or brewing beer, I'm biking. Here's the best of both worlds.

 

[tmac2050]

This one stays at our cabin. Koa wood, one of my favorites.

Cheers to the Hawaii bottle opener - its my goto as well:

And I'm surprised noone has posted the Popener:

Purchased at the gift shop on the roof of St. Peter's. Showing my age - this is a couple of Pope's ago now.

 

[tmac2050]

Well, it's no kangaroo scrotum, but This is my go-to. Nothing but the best tools for my brews or bicycles...

Sooo bummed my Park Tool opener is MIA. . .

Awesomeness

 

[ateurtrk79]

I have this one, It's called a Mit Mah bottle opener (I think). You place it over the cap and press down, and a spring loaded mechanism inside pops the cap off without bending it (Great for saving caps for fridge magnets or whatever). It even has a magnet that catches the cap for you.

My dream opener (hard to find, and PRICEY on eBay!):

I just got one of these and like it for clipping to my soft-sided cooler:

 

[MrNatural]

Not really unusual, but pretty cool - and handy!

 

[ETCovey]

State o' Texas. Used to have a longhorn on it that rubbed off

 

[scubasteve03]

I got an engraved 3 in 1 money clip from Copenhagen in the mail a few months back. Its a money clip, bottle opener, and dip can opener.

 

[goodgodilovebeer]

I don't have a picture of it but my friend has one that is made out of a kangaroo, scrotum and testicles. Complete with all the fur.

Look further back in the thread...

[Brewcrew02]

Well I can't just come out and call y'all amateurs, but I can say that I never don't have an opener.
Insert double negative/alcoholic comment here!

My buddy made this 50 Cal. shell bottle opener for me as a Christmas gift.

My buddy made this 50 Cal. shell bottle opener for me as a Christmas gift.

My buddy has one like this. Knowing his penchant for herbal supplement, I thought it was a pipe, until he opened a beer with it.

I had a pair of the Reef sandals, but I wore them out. Literally ripped off my foot while opening a bottle.

 

[high5apparatus]

I have these sandals, and I have yet to open a beer with them.

but it is nice to know in a pinch I could use them

I had a pair of the reef sandals with an opener in the bottom. They did come in handy at a campout when we forgot an opener until we found one in town.

They were good for that sort of thing (emergency, in a pinch, erc) but the opener kind of sucked otherwise.

 

[Xtant]

Let's see...

Caribiner, nut tool, reef sandals, Jeep door striker, and a credit card size opener in my wallet.

At any given time, I have at least one bottle opener within reach.

My favorite is the jeep door striker. It HAD to be designed that way. I can't see any other reason for it to have flat spots...

You can have mine after your pry it from my cold drunken hands. I'm surprised you got it on your keychain. Isn't it a bit unwieldly? I tried, and it kept getting caught on everything.

 

[forestGeek]

Picked this up while in Berlin a few years back and it's been my fave since.
