Can this be used as a letter opener ?

Not made for it. Only sharp edge is on the front. Won't be a pretty cut. Would rip paper rather than cut.... But it will get letters OpenOffice... I have opened a can of tuna with this tool... Fun little gadget...

Sure, but it's not really for that. I mostly use it to open boxes and open beer bottles.

Not really. Too small and no real edge to speak of. A spoon might work better.

You should be able to if it's just a simple key without too many embellishments. The item itself it kinda stiff so it would make it a little less malleable.Good luck

I think it will work if your mailbox door opens and closes...and the unit sits inside and will be triggered by the opening and closing of your mailbox door. Otherwise, you may have to asked the maker if it will work.

Ya as has been said it's not sharp but it's not dull. You can stab a water bottle easily and cut a piece of paper. But trying to open a letter with it won't work. But you can, of course, always sharpen it more.

I haven't used it for that purpose, I bought it for home use mostly, but this item is well built so I don't see no reason why it can't work for your purpose.

It could, but because it is short, the effort would be considerable. And, the door would have to have a wood frame. This particular shorty would not be as effective on metal clad wood core doors in a metal frame. Even with a wood frame leverage would be essential to breach the lock's latch or dead bolt nested in the strike plate. But, yes a determined individual could use this to breach the locks but it will be all day and noisy. Stanley Fat max extreme, a trucker's friend or halligan bar all have longer handles to pry the latch and/or hinges. I assume you are working at this lock from the outside otherwise you could disassemble the lock with a screw driver...done.

No. This can open was made for light duty and easy carry. Great for survival & emergency use but definitely not easier to use than the basic twist-handled opener.

Yes it can. Would work pretty well for that application. The instructions are not very clear for the item so don't get discouraged if it takes a minute to figure it out. Should work fine.

Hi James, I don't know the answer to this but it is designed to scan bar codes. Most companies such as USPS does use some type of hand held scanning device so maybe this would work for you.

It could. I just found it to be very cheaply made. I bought it for my son, so I do not have it in my house.

Yes however, it is very difficult to use. Mine sits in a drawer. The buttons don't accept keystrokes easily.

I think it would be good for that as I used it on some envelopes. It doesn't stick well to shiny or smooth surfaces though.

It is possible but it would have to be a really small hand. The mail goes through a slot and then falls to the bottom of the mail box.

Opener is not powerful enough to force a sticking latch. You mist adjust the hinges and/or the latch for free operation.

It might be - it's super thin. If you have a manual press I could see it working possibly. I have only used it for wrapping/packing items.
