The "safety cut" can openers I'm familiar with don't cut anything -
they uncrimp the can top so you just lift it off. They're hard to
find, but I like them better'n anything, including (especially?)
electric openers.

The one I have (safety cut) cuts. Didn't realize how the
cans were constructed until I got one.

They work pretty well on the pull-tops too, they really
annoy me. If you open them as intended it is hard to swab
out everything. I'm sure most people don't bother with
that...
