Handy Sam Creations - Wall-Mounted Beer Openers




I am notorious for losing my bottle openers. Ask anyone. Since I turned 21, I lose those suckers more than REM loses their religion. Even the ones with the magnets on the back are hard for me to be accounted for because they provide me with a false sense of security. After a few brews, I will set it down somewhere and then it disappears into the night. This is a real hassle since I don't drink too many twist off brands and sometimes have to embarrassingly go outside to use the curb to pop my tops. 

Not anymore. Thanks to Sam VeuCasovic from Handy Sam Creations, the genius behind wall-mounted bottle openers...made with love. And beer.


Handy Sam Creations, or the HSC, is a purveyor of fine artisan wares who crafted both a useful and extremely cool-looking bottle opener that is an essential for all man-caves worldwide, let alone The Man-Cave. HSC has the most manly Etsy store on a very un-manly website that lets people sell vintage or handmade items. While 97% of the vendor items you will find on there are knit sweaters, beaded jewelry and other crafts, Sam sells kickass wall-mounted bottle openers that use vintage beer cans, among other available tins, as cap catchers. And they only range between $26-32!! I can't believe how inexpensive they are, especially when you consider the shipping, service and product quality.

First off, let me tell you about the awesome and responsive service HSC provides. After scanning hundreds of available cans, I could not locate any with my faves, the Philadelphia Phillies, or any Philadelphia sports teams at all (save your nyuk-nyuk Philly sports jokes). Within an hour of emailing Sam with my request, he responded with a link to a can that contained my favorite old-time Phils player, the late Richie Ashburn. 


It seemed to arrive at my door a few minutes after I pressed the "Send" button informing him that the "Whitey" can was for me. The packaging was extremely tight and professional as the product did not even contain so much as a scratch on the tin. As a surprise bonus, I learned that Sam includes two screws for your hanging needs with each order, so all you have to do is grab your drill after finding a wall stud and attach. It's seriously that simple. 

Immediately after I joined the opener to my hallowed Man-Cave wall, the pristine quality of the wood and the sleekness of the can really upped the coolness factor of my lair. It truly is a thing of beauty and that's no BS. How well does it work? One month and an indeterminable amount of opened bottled beer later, it still looks as good as new, contains zero signs of wear and tear on both the product and my wall. More importantly, I have never had any issues using it to removes my bottle caps. Ever. Seriously, I couldn't be more pleased with both its performance and durability.

If you like beer, are in the market for a cool wall decoration that is also extremely useful at a low price, go check out Handy Sam Creations today (links below) and tell Sam that The Man-Cave sent you to get your awesome on!!
