Know before you buy
Yes, the solid wood handle is finished to withstand standard kitchen and bar use. To maintain the wood's integrity, we recommend hand washing the tool and avoiding prolonged submersion in water.
The integrated blade is designed to handle standard foil and plastic capsules found on most wine bottles. Its serrated edge allows for a clean, smooth cut around the bottle neck.
A waiter's style corkscrew offers more control and portability than a winged model. It uses a two-step lever system that provides better leverage, making it easier to extract long corks without breaking them.
The corkscrew is crafted from heavy-duty stainless steel, which is highly resistant to corrosion and rust. This ensures the tool remains durable and hygienic even with frequent use in a home bar setting.
Absolutely. The stainless steel worm is designed to penetrate both natural and synthetic corks effectively. The sturdy construction provides the necessary grip to pull synthetic corks, which can sometimes be more resistant than natural ones.
