can-opener
Metal lid tool
A can-opener is a device for cutting open metal cans, typically with a sharp wheel that pierces and rolls along the rim.
The term also appears in hockey slang for a dangerous checking technique that upends an opponent, and in wrestling for a neck crank where the opponent's head is forced toward their chest.
