Amazon.com Review: This luxury edition Sterling Rabbit corkscrew and genuine leather-and-chrome presentation case will even wow even the wine connoisseur who (thinks) he or she has everything. Metrokane makes this Rabbit completely out of die-cast metal for superior strength, and finishes it in polished chrome. Soft black leather grip pads on the corkscrew lever provide a sure, comfortable grip and match the black leather wrap on the elegant presentation case, the base and top of which also feature polished chrome. A chrome foil cutter and extra spiral are included in the case, which handsomely stores the Rabbit.
Award-winning for its innovative design, the Rabbit corkscrew opens any wine bottle in just three seconds. Squeeze the Rabbit's arms around the bottle, push the lever down, pull up, and the cork is out. To remove the cork from the spiral, simply lower and raise the lever again. Hardened all-metal teeth on the gear mechanism ensure that the corkscrew will open up to 20,000 bottles (when the spiral is replaced every 800 to 1,000 pulls). The spiral, also called a worm, is made of high tensile steel coated with a nonstick finish, and features mini-bearings in the head. Metrokane covers the Sterling Rabbit with a 10-year warranty against defects. --Ann Bieri

Have a bottle of wine handy on which you've already used the supplied (and very good) little foil cutter to remove the foil over the cork.
Take the unit in your hand and look at the movable parts. The overhead lever that swings outward / downward ... Read More
