The waiter’s friend is an indispensable barware tool. The lever-action corkscrew design is well known for its efficient and easy opening of corked bottles and doubles as a crown cork / bottle cap opener. Known as a sommelier knife, the waiter’s friend is a versatile, two-step opener. Twist in the corkscrew then brace the arm against the bottleneck and lift out the cork. Included is a retractable knife to cut protective foil. Made from fine quality materials, our wine bottle opener is strong, small enough to fit in a pocket, and designed for ergonomic, comfortable use. Hand washing is recommended.
