      Information
      Kan-Opener G-Spec is one of the many Kan-Opener models that were manufactured by Team Kan-Opener in 2009. In 2012, it was sold to Jason Marston the owner of Thor after Team Kan-Opener retired from combat robots. Kan-Opener's jaws are not only powerful enough to crush a car, but they are also interchangeable to suit the opponent it is fighting. The jaws can either be the normal piercing ones, spiked, have big flat plates or small flat plates. The previous versions of Kan-Opener haven't enjoyed much success in the UK Championships of Robot Wars despite winning the Annihilator twice in a row.
