Laguiole Corkscrew Red Pear Wood 14 cm

There are corkscrews you forget in a drawer, and there are corkscrews you want lying out on the counter - or even in your pocket. This one belongs firmly in the second group.

The Expert's Description

Laguiole Corkscrew Red Pear Wood 14 cm is a corkscrew from Laguiole with a red pear wood handle, measuring 14 cm when closed. The name Laguiole originally comes from a small village in southern France, where knives and corkscrews of high quality have been made for generations. This model is machine-made at Whisky.dk's supplier, but meets the same strict quality standards the Laguiole name is known for, and it's the kind of classic, compact corkscrew anyone opening a bottle of red wine on the go should keep in their pocket.

Design & Materials

The handle is made of pear wood, giving each corkscrew its own character, since natural colour variation can occur from piece to piece. The compact, foldable construction makes it easy to carry without taking up space in a pocket or bag.

Use & Care

Unfold the corkscrew, screw the worm down into the cork, and use the handle as a lever to draw the cork out. Wipe it down with a dry cloth after use and avoid submerging the wooden handle in water.
