Know before you buy
The Viking Bottle Opener is crafted from natural Alder wood, which is known for its durability. While it is designed for everyday use, we recommend occasionally treating the wood with a food-safe mineral oil to maintain its luster and prevent it from drying out over time.
Because it is made from Alder wood, the handle offers a warmer, more ergonomic grip than standard stainless steel openers. The 16cm length provides enough leverage to open bottles comfortably without requiring excessive force.
Yes, the opener is designed to work with any standard crown-cap bottle, including both beer and soda varieties.
To preserve the integrity of the wood, wipe the opener clean with a damp cloth after use. It should never be placed in the dishwasher or submerged in water, as this can cause the wood to warp or crack.
The functional metal component is designed for durability and regular contact with moisture from chilled bottles. To ensure longevity, simply wipe the metal part dry after use to prevent any potential oxidation.
