# Beverage-Popping Weaponry The 'Bust a Bottlecap' Opener Tops off Drinks Dangerously By Matt Ho | Published 2011-12-02 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bust-a-bottlecap-openers References: [coolmaterial](http://coolmaterial.com/home/bust-a-bottlecap-bottle-openers/) & [bustabottlecap.myshopify](http://bustabottlecap.myshopify.com/) The 'Bust a Bottlecap' opener is probably the only set of tools that can both pop off a cap and function as a close-range weapon at the same time. As one can see, the Bust a Bottlecap opener gives off a bit of a dangerous vibe considering the form they take. All the cap poppers are shaped as weapons with a hard metallic finish that actually makes it look a little more badass. Each of the perforated holes will offer a proper grip for the item, some of which feature a rubber handle for better security. Those interested will have the option of using a revolver, a 9mm handgun, a grenade or brass knuckle-shaped bottle opener for their beverage. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.8/10 - Popularity: 58% | Activity: 77% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Drinking](https://www.trendhunter.com/drinking) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Novelty Bottle Openers:** Manufacturers of bottle openers can explore new designs that appeal to their target market's sense of humor and personal style. - **Multi-functional Tools:** Developers of tools can look into integrating multiple functions into their products to increase their practical value to customers. - **Weapon-themed Accessories:** Companies in the fashion and accessory industry can explore designs inspired by weapons to tap into a niche market of consumers seeking edgy and unique products. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Kitchenware:** Manufacturers of kitchen gadgets can incorporate novelty-themed bottle openers to increase the appeal of their product lines. - **Tool Manufacturing:** Companies that produce tools can investigate incorporating multiple functions into their products to create a new space in the market for multi-functional tools. - **Fashion and Accessory Design:** Designers and manufacturers of fashion and accessories can develop and create accessories inspired by firearms to appeal to consumers seeking edgy and unique products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Dynamic Curved Bottle Openers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dancing-opener.md) - [Hidden Bottle Opener Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/leverage-watch.md) - [Bat-Shaped Wine Openers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wine-and-beer-openers.md) - [Full-Top Can Openers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/draft-top-pro.md) - [Decorative Bottle Openers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/decorative-bottle-opener1.md) - [Dynamic Mechanical Bottle Openers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ryan-k.md) - [Beverage Can Openers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/davi-can-opener.md) - [Smart Bottle Openers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-bottle-opener.md) - [Sleek Top Can Openers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/davi-can.md)
