bought a Fray Bentos pie and tried to open the lid, as per instructions.
3 can openers and a cut hand later, had to rip the top off with pliers.
is there a bespoke opener for these tins?

You have my sympathies. I have gone thru countless styles and types of can openers to open these tins. I usually resort to the knife on my gerber and pliars whilst wearing leather gloves

You've got to have some sympathy for this lady then

I can't for the life of me open FB corned beef tins. The openers are not up to the job and very nearly dislocated both my thumbs in the attempt. I used to have an opener as per the photograph and wish to heaven I'd kept it.

Trncvaughan, throw it in the bin and buy some Greggs steak melts from starling. So much nicer. Afiet olson.

This style of tin opener is sold by Flying Tiger shops in the south of which there are several, one in the new Nicosia Mall and one in Ledra Street for sure...

Oooooh luxury!

Then all you’d need is one of these and a tin of babies’ heads and you’re suckin’ diesel!
