The house painter and do-it-yourselfer use a pot opener to lift the lid of the hermetically sealed paint cans to allow air to enter and open the can. The paint pot opener is a flat metal rod (approx. 10-15 cm) with the end (approx. 1 cm) folded back and thinned for easier access under the lid. The rod then serves as a lever of the first kind. If the end is not folded over, it will be in the shape of a flat screwdriver and / or hook. Slightly shorter models are provided with a ring to put more pressure, sometimes they are combined with a can pierce or a bottleopener. [MOT]

Fire tongs can be used to move burning pieces of wood. It is quite long, so that the hands are kept at a sufficient distance from the fire and the burning pieces of wood. The fire tongs are often part of a fireplace set, which can also contain an ash shovel, a fork and a brush. The fire tongs are very different from charcoal tongs, which are lighter and often shorter. It is therefore only intended to take a coal from the fireplace and light the pipe with it. See also the clinker tongs. [MOT]
