One of the most essential accessories within any kitchen is the humble can opener. Without it, those beans, tomatoes, soups and other tinned items are going to be very difficult to get into (unless they've got a ring pull, of course!). In fact, we think a geared or butterfly tin opener is one of the most practical gifts you can give to someone who's moving into their first home, that and other must-haves such as cheese graters and knife sets. Simply choose ones that will fit in with their overall interior design scheme (yes, tin openers can play a part in decor, too!).
