Tips and hints

1. Cork screw

ZWILLING J.A. HENCKELS distinguishes between double-lever and normal cork screw. Both systems comprise a sharpened spiral with a sharp and pointed tip. The spiral bores easily and safely into the cork without slipping or damaging it. Because spiral and thread have been perfectly adjusted, bottles can be opened with minimum effort. Equally important, the synthetic holder keeps the bottle neck in place and prevents glass splinters.

The cork screw is available in three different versions, nickel plated, dark tin-plated and chrome-plated. All three are identical in their function.

How to use: turn the handle to the right. To draw the cork throw the lever over and continue turning until the cork is safely removed from the bottle. Even very long corks do not pose a problem.

The double-lever cork screw is dark tin-plated and comprises an integrated cap lifter. The lever action can be operated with minimal effort. Even hard and solid corks do not stand a chance with the wide open spiral.

How to use: place the synthetic holder centrally on the bottle neck and turn the spiral clockwise until lever starts lifting. Press down the levers and de-cork the bottle safely and easily.
