ABSTRACT:
A combination bottle opener and can opener is disclosed. A bottle opening element may be movably connected to a can opening element. The bottle opening element may include a first end having an angled portion and a protrusion that cooperate to define a bottle cap receiving area. The bottle opening element may also include an angled body section. The can opening element may include a cutting blade pivotally connected to a body part. The cutting blade may include a cutting edge, a cut-out portion and a plurality of projections. The body part may include a strengthening rib, a tapered edge and a can rim receiving notch. In an open, extended position the combination opener has length greater than the bottle opening element or can opening element alone. This greater length increases the leverage and decreases the amount of force necessary to open a bottle or can, respectively. In a closed position the cutting blade is folded against the body part and is substantially enclosed by the bottle opening element and the body part. In the closed position the combination opener may be compactly carried in a shirt or pant pocket with little likelihood of the cutting blade causing injury to the clothes or the body of the user.
