I have had a couple of messages about the bottle opener I made in the “New Propane Forge Video.” That one was sort of a one-off as it was made from a scrap section of 1/2” piece of square bar I had laying around. I thought I would take a minute or two and show you my favorite type of forged opener to actually use day to day. I have 3 stashed in various places: kitchen, grill, and by the fireplace in the living room.
These are made from a section of 1/8”X1” flat bar, the opener just feels good to hold and use, slips in a pocket, and doesn’t roll off a table. I coat them while still hot with beeswax collected from my hives.
