Our favorite corkscrew is the waiter's mezzaluna professional, which combines the most useful elements of other devices into one tool. One end sports a 1-1/2" long flip-out slightly curved blade that can be used for removing price stickers and foil capsules, or carving your initials into a wine cask. The other end is a flip-out lever that doubles as a bottle-opener (for when the world runs out of wine and we have to drink something else) as well as a brace that rests on the top lip of the bottle to provide leverage when extracting the cork. The flip-out screw-arm is 2-3/8" long; in the open position it is perpendicular to the slim handle which is perfectly contoured to fit comfortably in the hand. The simple perfection of the waiter's mezzaluna professional corkscrew makes it easy to open a bottle of wine without setting it down on a tabletop. Constructed of brushed stainless steel and stamped with the Dovo name and logo, assuring the exceptional quality associated with Solingen, Germany. Closed, corkscrew is 4-3/8" long and comes with padded metal case for safe storage. $24.00
