I have a bunch of those, my favorite is one shaped like a killer whale.
Some of them will be frustrating for those non-mechanical folks. The
ones that have a lever action to engage the can will be easier to use.

One of the great things about these openers is that you can reuse the
lid and can and it creates a resealable container. When I was going to
electronics school, I'd use that opener to use cans to house projects.
Folks that do arts and crafts might find there's a world of
possibilities in a metal can with a reusable lid.
