    I don’t think I’ve ever seen one! It’s just a knife?

    No, it's not a "knife" ... it's a "can opener" (military issue)

    The P-38 (larger variant known as the P-51) is a small can opener that was issued with canned United States military rations from its introduction in 1942 to the end of canned ration issuance in the 1980s. Originally designed for and distributed in the K-ration, it was later included in the C-ration.
