Corkscrews.
Our famous range of original cork lifters with their patented smooth-pull action, longer worms for Rioja & Cabernet corks and innovative foil cutter systems, have been consistently voted into first place by the International Wine Trade year after year. Making them a must-have for any bar set-up.
Professional corkscrews are simple, comfortable to use & easily fit into your pocket. Our best corkscrews are streamlined & lightweight, with effective lever action for easy cork lifting. Waiter’s Friend corkscrews are designed with a sharp knife for foil splicing, a long worm, or spiral, to tackle those tougher corks & a beer bottle opener.
For a consistent, smooth opening of bottles, winged or lever corkscrews provide a comfortable fit. Complete with a long worm spiral, use the lever to easily press down & release the cork for that satisfying ‘pop’.
Foil cutters are a quick & easy way to remove the foil covering from bottles of wine. Choose from purpose-made wine bottle foil cutters or our Pirouette Waiter’s Friends with an in-built 4-wheel Wine Foil Cutter, to neatly slice the foil away.
Smoothly handle any stubborn or crumbling corks with a Butler’s Thief Cork Remover. Its smart design slides 2 blades on either side of the cork to gently de-cork your bottle of vintage.
Sleek, stylish and effective, our selection of champagne openers makes a wonderful addition to any bottle of fizz. Providing that perfect ‘pop’ for every celebration.
Start with a spiral corkscrew, as you can twist into the cork slowly and have the flexibility to reposition the corkscrew if needed. If the cork is crumbling, try the Butler’s Thief Cork Extractor, which has two thin blades that slide on either side of the cork and hold it in place for a smooth removal.
What To Do When A Wine Cork Doesn’t Come Out?
If you experience a stubborn or broken cork, use a Professional Corkscrew with a spiral screw and handle; this allows you to twist deep into the cork and pull the cork in a vertical line without hitting the neck of the bottle. You could also try the Butler’s Thief Cork Extractor for extra grip on either side of the cork.
What's The Difference Between A Corkscrew And A Wine Key?
A corkscrew has a top handle which twists the screw into the cork, with two arms on either side which you push down to lift the cork. A wine key is often slimmer and also referred to as a waiter’s corkscrew. The spiral screw twists into the cork, and you place the metal fulcrum on the lip of the bottle as leverage to pull the cork out. Wine keys may also have small knives to remove any seals.
Can You Use A Corkscrew As A Bottle Opener?
Most corkscrews have a bottle-opening feature, making them a versatile addition to any bar. Whether that’s in the top handle or as an additional arm, which is tucked into the corkscrew, a bit like a Swiss Army knife.
Can You Use A Corkscrew To Open Prosecco?
Most Proseccos, Champagnes or Sparkling Wines do not require a corkscrew, and you should not use one. Corks can be successfully removed by removing the foil and untwisting the wiring. Hold the cork tightly in one hand and the bottom of the bottle in the other; twist the bottle slowly until you feel the cork ease out. Alternatively, use a Champagne/Sparkling Wine Opener for the perfect pop every time.
What Are The Different Types Of Corkscrews You Can Get?
There are several corkscrews to meet your bottle and bar needs. At Waiter’s Friend, we have five different types of corkscrews: Waiter’s Corkscrews, Winged-lever Corkscrews, Butler’s Thief, Foil Cutters and Champagne Openers. Other types, such as electronic bottle openers and air pressure pumps, are available.
