Waiter's Corkscrew Black Horn Shiny Forge

Forge De Laguiole Waiter's Corkscrew – French craftsmanship in a class of its own

This waiter's corkscrew from Forge De Laguiole combines functionality with aesthetics in an elegantly handcrafted sommelier knife. With a handle of black horn and a body of stainless steel, you receive a tool that performs impeccably whilst presenting itself as a piece of French craftsmanship. The corkscrew's design features the characteristic shepherd's cross motif and the bee symbol, testifying to its authentic origins.

Ideal for professional waiters, wine connoisseurs and enthusiasts who appreciate quality tools with history and character.

French craft tradition with depth

Every Forge De Laguiole corkscrew is handmade in the Laguiole region of France following centuries-old traditions. The shepherd's cross on the handle tells the story of Catholic shepherds who used their knives as improvised prayer altars far from civilisation. This cultural heritage lends the corkscrew's design a depth and significance that extends well beyond its practical function. The combination of black horn and stainless steel ensures both durability and a distinctive visual profile.

Practical functionality in elegant form

Weighing just 90 grams, the corkscrew sits comfortably in the hand, and its compact size of 120 mm when closed makes it easy to store. When unfolded to its full length of 175 mm, it provides optimal leverage even for the most stubborn corks. The stainless steel blade cuts effortlessly through foil capsules, whilst the sturdy helix draws the cork out cleanly without breaking it. Please note that the corkscrew's natural horn material requires hand-washing – it is not dishwasher safe.
