Falstaff, Jax, Pear, Progress, Lonestar, Hamms, Bud, Coors, to many to name. And the old advertising handle type with white handle with the red cap.What got me started was we were at a cabin down by McAlester out in the woods and one of the 20 year old young un's came out of the woods carrying an old Steel Budweiser can that had been open with a church key. He ask what was this all about. I explained to him how we use to open the cans before the Pop Top. Than it hit me........ Church Keys are out of date and the young ones doesn't even have a clue what they are or what they were used for. So........ I would find them at yard sales and flee markets for 25 cent to 50 cents apiece and I would pick them up. Family and friends started bringing them to me and so forth. Could buy them on Ebay cheap, but now I think everyone found out they are collectable and the price has really gone up. I haven't bought any in a while, but still look for them at Flee Markets.And Knives.....300+ well that's another story.</blockquote>
