A can opener for a pull top-type can includes a body comprising a forward surface, a rear surface, and a bottom surface. The bottom surface is curved to define a rounded heel. The opener includes a starting notch and a finishing notch. The notches are both located along the front of the opener, and the finishing notch is spaced above the starting notch. The can opener is provided with a retainer to maintain the can lid on the opener after the lid has been removed from the can. The retainer can be a fixed or moveable retainer. The can opener can be provided with a vertically or horizontally cutting can opener mechanism to enable the opener to function as a dual purpose opener.
