CANARY Butane Canister Punch Tool 5.5" Recycling Tool, Safe Puncture Tool with Spray Guard for Disposing Camping Stoves, Isobutane Gas Canisters, and Spray Cans, Made in JAPAN

Simple, safe, easy to use, lightweight (27 g), and sturdy--as well as inexpensive--this recycling tool is a the BEST I've found yet for prepping spent fuel and other metal canisters for recycling. This thing works on ALL pressurized metal canisters regardless of whether it has a lip around the bottom or not. I use this for pre-filled sinus rinse, hair spray, oven cleaner, glass cleaner, as well as JetBoil fuel canisters. I even puncture the sides of beers to prank my friends at outdoor BBQ's (it's easy to plug the hole with a finger once the leak is discovered, so not much is wasted, and it works equally well on aluminum and steel cans)! The question isn't whether or not you should buy one, but rather how long it will take for the Chinese to pay the Japanese producers the "ultimate compliment" by copying their design!

This tool is the easiest way I have found to puncture cannisters. It requires little strength and is easily stored.

Solves the problem of safe disposal of my butane grill cartridges.

I have been using a propane/butane stove for some of my cooking. I guess it's considered a camp stove, but I love using gas cooking over electric. Anyway, once the butane cannister is empty (or almost empty) it needs to be disposed of in a responsible way. There is still a tiny amount of gas left in the can and I didn't want to cause a problem to the garbage pick-up people. I found this and it is the perfect tool to put holes into the can and let the little bit of gas left escape.

we're frequent campers so we have a lot of these butane containersthis is so lightweight and super easy to use and so simple can't ask for more, does the job

I needed a simple tool to help me remove all and any residue gas on those portable gas cartridges for cooking stoves. This product is just perfect. Really simple to use, bare basic and sturdy.I work in a restaurant setting where we use gas canisters a lot, so this product is really helpful when we have "empty" canisters to recycle. It is not advisable to throw gas canisters into the bin even though they appear "empty" as there are bound to be leftover gas inside, which makes it dangerous.With this product, we puncture a few holes to ensure the balance gas are all released and it can be disposed off as trash without any danger to anyone.

Simple tool. Works well. No issues so far.

Gives peace of mind, to make sure butane canisters are ready for recycle. So easy to use, and perfect for the task. I love this tool.
