Description: You get one per item PICKED RANDOMLY. Most are better than the one pictured. FREE SHIPPING. You can order more than one. Each count is a single item. These are old from around the 1950's. These are not perfect. They might have a minute surface rust, if so it will be very very slight and cleanable with your tools. I will not be able to pick any specific one from the group pictures. You will see pictures of a group of them. Those pictures show you the group that your item will randomly come from. An order of one will not get you several can openers - again to be clear this sale is for eaches, ones, singles. YOU GET ONE PER EACH COUNT ORDERED. FOR EXAMPLE IF YOU CHOOSE "1" YOU WILL GET ONE CAN OPENER. IF YOU CHOOSE "2" YOU WILL GET TWO, ETC. Ships free in a standard stamped mail envelope with no tracking. Don't worry, it's reliable. If purchase more than 10 I might upgrade shipping to First Class with tracking. History about Speaker: A soldier at the lab, Major Thomas Dennehy, drew up the initial design in thirty days. But he couldn’t solve the problem of a locking mechanism that would keep the blade from opening when not in use.That final design step fell to John W. Speaker, an immigrant from Austria who had watched from afar as Nazis took over his native land. He had two things making him a good fit for the challenge: a passionate hatred for Hitler and a metal shop in Milwaukee that made automobile parts. He used the latter to perfect a special hinge which kept the blade snapped shut when not in use. The former inspired him to refuse any royalties for his invention. He was a patriot and wanted to do his part to win the war.JW Speaker Company would go on to manufacture over 50 million P-38s at the cost of about a penny-a-piece.Speaker didn’t label the device a “P-38.” Rather, it got a typical Army designation: “Opener, Hand, Can, Folding, Type 1.”
