No, it is specifically designed for those with limited grip strength or arthritis. It requires minimal pressure to operate, as the tool does the work of breaking the seal for you.
No, the tool is designed to release the seal without cutting or damaging the lid. It does not have sharp edges or moving parts, making it safe to handle.
