Corkscrews
Wine bottle openers (Corkscrews) are required to open wine bottles that are stoppered with a cork. They are slowly becoming obsolete with the increasing popularity of the screwcap closure.
There are many different inceptions of the wine bottle opener ranging from the simple corkscrew, the screwpull lever, to complicated carbon dioxide driven openers.
The most popular is the wine key, sommelier knife or "waiter's friend" which resembles a pocket knife and has a small blade for cutting foil and a screw with a bottle brace.
