Funny, I have yet to find a "Church Key" I did inherit my dads collection. Thanks for the post.

Is a church key a key to a church?

Maybe today some folks don't know what a church key is. It was used to punch holes in cans before the pull tab.....Jack

Used to carry one on me to always be prepared.
