    Without looking how many bottle openers are you aware are in your house? Can opener, cork screws with bottle openers, key chains all count!

    I've can think of: 9

    I can think of 7 in the house. And 3 more in the shed.

    50 cal shell, decapitator, smiley face, crappy standard one, 3 travel ones. Then two wine openers. 9 I suppose. That's if we're not getting inventive.

    Church key, handled can opener, 2 brewery branded bar openers, 2 waiter's corkscrews, 2 brewery branded key chain openers, 2 Critter Cutters, and there's probably more I can't think of offhand.

    So 10 that I can remember.

    Probably ten but NHC is responsible for a bunch of those.

    sitting at my computer desk and there's 4 within reach.

    at least 5 or 6 in the kitchen, 2 or 3 combo corkscrews in the china cabinet in the dining room, 1 on my keychain, 2 in the brew lab

    1 attached to a soft-side cooler in my car

    I think my favorite bottle opening tool is the one my grandpa gave when I was in the 4th grade. it's a Leinenkugel's bottle/can opener that his dad gave him. key chain style that swivels in the middle. one of our boys are gonna get it.

    Two on the fridge, prob 5 in the drawer, one of the key ring, and you can always take the lower receiver of an AR and use the hammer...

    Anything with a sturdy edge. Pretty much any tool in the garage. Most of my kitchen utensils. The term 'bottle opener' is subjective. ;)

    Innova disc fridge magnet, Gropener, weird old one, Milwaukee Brewers key chain, Cerra de la Silla keychain, Heineken keychain. Can opener. Plus I have two coolers with built-ins. That makes 9, not counting lighters

    3 by the beer fridge, a church key attached by a rope to the cooler, about a dozen of those cheap ass punched aluminum miller lite can venting ones from a concert, one attached to the wine corkscrew and one on a waiters wine key, the one built into the can opener and cheap kitchen shears, about half a dozen keychain aluminum ones. And that is just off the top of my head. I know there are at least 6 more I have not listed, or are misplaced, or just have been forgotten about. Then again, pretty much anything can be a bottle opener if you are thirsty enough. I have used a sheet of paper before to great effect.
