does this leave a sharp edge around the rim or does the lid have a smooth edge when removed

Sorry for the delay in responding but I hadn't really considered the type of edge, so when I opened a can this morning, the edge around the rim was smooth. Hope this helps!

I think a lot of this depends on the can itself and how it is sealed. However, I'd say the lid is smooth, meaning the edge is usually not notched or ruffled. But again, different cans, different results. If by smooth, you mean the edge is not sharp, I can't say. I never run my finger on the edge of a can lid. I think they all have the potential of cutting into skin. The inside edge of a can after opening tends to be smooth with no jagged edges. But I would not purpose to run my finger there either for the same reasons just stated.

Not a sharp edge at all. I've been extremely happy with this can opener. The "heighth adjustment" function is really useful, especially when opening things that are very tall. Hope this helps.

The lid that it cuts off has a sharp edge, but I have never had an issue with anyone cutting themselves. My kids use it all the time and they range from 6-11 years old. I see in the one reply she calls this opener junk but we had one for almost 15 yrs before it went bad and now this one for about a year with no problem. I hope this helps.

I don't remember. I didn't have it long, it was a piece of junk. I went and bought a hand held opener. Try a different one!

It is very easy to clean and all parts of the lid comes apart. I take mine apart weekly and there is never any stuff stuck to it.

It has edges. They aren't sharp, but it's curved with the contour of the front. A bit convex.

This model opens the lid from around the top and does not leave any sharp edges. I really like it.

On the bottom of the pan there is NO rim around the edge - BUT - there is a concentric circular pattern, which resembles the heating element on an electric stove. Althought it has a good bit larger diameter and has the "Lodge" logo in the center as well as their patten # on it. The cast mold of the circular pattern is about 1/8 inch thick. I assume this is to help prevent warping.

Yes the lid comes off. The edges are all smooth and don't stick out. The screen itself is slightly below a plastic lip, but I don't think would impede anything.

Yes, it is perfect for anything with ridges and most smooth rims. I have never seen damage and have had mine for 15-years. It holds the lid firmly while you slightly twist the can, jar, or bottle.My mother cannot grip things very well so it really helps especially with bottled water and jelly jars. I got her's last month and she loves it.

The lid is glass with stainless edges and handle. It is perfect if you like to watch what you are cooking without removing the top.

I've had mine for two years and regularly wash it in the dishwasher. However, the chrome around the lid is separating from the plastic creating a very sharp edge....I have cut my lip on it several times. I think this is probably due to the dishwasher.

Yes. It is so simple. Pay attention to the dots it makes so the whole lid is covered. The opener has a little grip that you manually remove the can. No rough edges.

Its smooth. You will love it. Very easy to clean as nothing sticks to it. My favorite spatula!

It looks like the lid isn't removable. It does open up to a 90 degree angle which for me is enough to clean fairly easily.

Yes it has slits at the top around the rim. It has held up extremely well since I purchased it. No regrets here!

I have opened a plastic peanut butter lid, but it was ridged. Not sure about a smooth one. It did not leave marks on metal.

It unscrews from the lid. You may have to be more forceful the first time you do it. I really enjoy it.

Yes the lid is still sharp, but the can itself does not have any sharp edges
