Japanese Army Pen Knife Can Opener
The Boker History Knife & Tool Japanese Army Pen Knife Can Opener is a faithful reproduction of the WWII-era Higonokami-style friction folder carried by Japanese soldiers in the field. It pairs a 1.97-inch 440 stainless drop-point blade with an integrated can opener, a nail nick for deployment, and a bent stainless handle lacquered in authentic olive drab. At just 1.06 ounces and 3.15 inches closed, it disappears in a pocket or on a keyring. A solid pick for militaria collectors, WWII reenactors, and anyone who appreciates a compact, historically accurate utility folder.

Cool Knife For The PriceThis thing is tiny and flat enough to literally throw in your wallet or lunchbox and forget about it until you need it. I tossed one in my fishing bag and one in my glove box because they're so cheap you can just stash them everywhere. The can opener part works just like a P-38 which is awesome if youve ever used one in the military. Only complaint is the can opener blade is kinda loose on its hinge and flops around a bit when you dont have it locked down with the lanyard clip, which is a weird design choice. The nail nick on the main blade works fine for opening it one handed though and the OD green paint looks legit for a WWII repro.
Super flat and lightweight so you can stash it anywhere
Can opener works great and is modeled after the classic P-38Can opener blade is loose on the hinge and flaps around when not secured
Non-locking slip joint so you gotta be careful with heavy cutting tasks
