Detailed explanation-1: -A metal can’s lid is very, very sharp-no matter how you got it open. While it may be tempting to try to pry the lid open with a sharp knife, that should probably be your last resort. Not only are you introducing another dangerously sharp object into the mix, you’re also going to ruin your knife.
Detailed explanation-2: -Place the can on a flat, stable surface. Use one hand to hold it firmly. Grip the handle of a chef’s knife and position the corner of the blade (the part closest to the handle) perpendicular to the inner edge of the lid. Push the corner of the blade downwards until you puncture the lid.
Detailed explanation-3: -On a flat surface, start by poking the tip of the knife through the top of the can. Continue poking holes around the edge of the can top until you can pry the lid from the can.
