A variation of the classic sommelier knife. The problem I've
discovered with this type of cork screw is cheap bottles. I've
chipped more than one bottle spout lip with this type of cork screw.
May jes be operator error, but if so, bound to get worse as the night
progresses. No thanks. I prefer my wine with no glass chips.
