content: Quote from: Rich@RohdeScopesUSA on April 01, 2020, 09:39:10 pmEvery German tool company seems to have an opener in the catalogue. I've got Rittal and Wera, even if I'm more of a Wiha person. Wera is really nice, they have both a cork screw and a bottle opener. Rittal has integrated bottle opener in all their control cabinet keys.Where is the R & S one?

content: This is what you get with each electrical cabinet. Guess every worker in the electrical industry should have plenty bottle openers at hand. Though this is a Rittal one, other companies do the same.
