Product Description
The well known
laguiole corkscrew line has been celebrated as one of the finest line of corkscrews ever created and this rosewood set is no exception. This genuine
laguiole waiter's corkscrew features a bottle opener, serrated blade for cutting foil, a stainless steel grooved spiral for easy wine opening, and of course the trademark
laguiole corkscrew bee on the back. It comes with a protective leatherette case with a magnetic closure and belt clip for professional waiters and comes packed in a wooden box; perfect for gift giving! 5 year warranty. Common Questions: Is this a real
laguiole corkscrew? Yes it is a officially licensed
laguiole product. The common misconception is that
laguiole itself is a manufacturer, it is not.
laguiole is actually a city in France, not a manufacturer.
laguiole just licenses their name and signature
laguiole bee to manufacturers whom meet their strict quality standards. There are actually dozens of manufacturers for
laguiole branded products, many of whom overcharge for the name. There are two main differences between this corkscrew and many of the more expensive
laguiole corkscrews you see elsewhere. 1) This corkscrew set is assembled in China, and much of it is made by machine to keep the cost down while still meeting the strict quality standards set forth by
laguiole. 2) This
laguiole corkscrew carrys a 5 year manufacturer warranty, whereas many of the other handmade
laguiole products do not.
This is the worst piece of junk that I have used in years. I work in fine dining and open wine for a living. Laguiole should be embarrassed to be selling such trash.
Even as better ways of closing a wine bottle rise to
the top of the bottle, a wine-lover still needs to
pull an occasional cork. This beautiful tool from the
French knifemaker Lagouile is often given as a gift
to those who like to pull a cork or two.
This rubber cushioned, widely used corkscrew is the
easiest, most convenient way to do it. Its grip is
comfortable, the screw penetrates cork easily but it lacks
the all-important two-step lever allows almost
anyone to muscle the cork out of the neck. It
slips easily into a pocket.
