Ring-Pull can opening was a thing of my childhood (those were the days). But what's that "church key" thing? The pics Google find look like a normal bottle opener…?

@musevg@23.social @cstross@wandering.shop @aral@mastodon.ar.al @s10n@mastodon.social @matt@oslo.town was wondering the same, and managed to keyword-search a source [link deleted, @denisbloodnok@mendeddrum.org 's reply bellow is better] Yes, it looks like a nornal bottle opener. The key part here is not the bottle opener end, but the pointy bit at the opposite end: you can use it to stab cans open (I would guess in a similar fashion as the sharp hook on a swiss knife can opener when you start?)
