I'm sure it's happened to you: off on a summer camping trip, you've got the hot dogs on sticks, waiting to be toasted in the fire. Now all you need to do is open the can of beans. Surely you remembered to pack the can opener... but where could it be?

When you are done placing blame with your camping buddies about who was supposed to pack the can opener, pull out your camping knife, open that can of beans, and get your dinner cooking.

Instructables has a handy video to help you learn how to open that can with just a knife. Honestly, there's not much to it; simply stick the knife into the can and hack away! A word of caution: those edges look sharp!

So never fear -- your camping trip is not ruined, and neither is your dinner. Continue roughing it in style.
