Hi Gene,
I was refering to yours. The hook blade I believe is for removing the foil on wine bottles, and the hole COULD be for loosening that nasty wire that you find on champagne bottles....insert the end of the wire in the hole to untwist? I have also seen wire on european stone wine/gin bottles. No doubt at the end of the hunt there was a celebration!!
In my opinion it is NOT for opening cans, as the tool for that requires somthing to grip the rim, as per those shown by Norm.
Feeling any better??
Stu
