Bell corkscrew
Bell corkscrew
Here's the most solid corkscrew you can get: The 'Monopol' edition of Westmark's bell corkscrew is called the 'Barolo'. It's German made and is made from die-cast zinc and steel.
If you haven't used a bell corkscrew before and you want a corkscrew that doesn't require brute force or strength (sommeliers everywhere will be passing out all over the place) do try these - they have a lovely action.
So called because the frame around the screw bit looks a bit like a bell...
We have more workaday options - a 'Waiter's Friend' corkscrew (usually favoured by sommeliers or a 'T' shape one here.
