98002BT Bottle Opener
Last verified by the Lifetime Picks Editorial Team
Why we picked it
Klein Tools build quality (since 1857)
The Klein Tools 98002BT is a beloved electrician's bottle opener that has earned a cult following on r/BuyItForLife. It pairs a high quality stainless steel shaft with Klein's signature Cushion Grip handle, the same comfortable grip found on their screwdrivers. Made in the USA and built to shop tool standards, it shrugs off years of jobsite abuse, drops, and dishwasher cycles. The Tip-Ident handle marking makes it easy to spot in a crowded drawer or tool pouch. Redditors report keeping the same one going strong for decades.
