This OPENER, known as the FRED or Field Ration Eating Device in the Australian Army, is an impressive piece of engineering. It is modeled after the U.S. Army P-38 and was first issued in 1943. Remarkably, it is still in use today. The FRED serves as a versatile tool, combining functionalities such as a can opener, bottle opener, and rudimentary spoon. This is an upgraded model based on the original design, tailored to better suit human ergonomics. The extended handle provides a more comfortable grip and requires less effort to operate. The edges are smooth, and the high-hardness stainless steel material ensures durability.Opening a can with the FRED is straightforward: simply align the fold-out hook's notch with the can's lip, push the hook forward into the lid, and carefully maneuver the opener back and forth along the can's edge until it is fully open. Additionally, a small hole located above the bottle opener notch allows the FRED to be conveniently attached to a cord or keyring.
