Abstract: A can opener has a blade-carrying member pivotably connected to a housing and a hooked connection between the blade-carrying member and the housing that permits the blade-carrying member to be disconnected from the pivotal connection when an actuator of the can opener is moved to a release position. The can opener may be provided with a stop to prevent the disconnection and removal of the blade-carrying member unless the actuator is in the release position.
