    If I'm opening a bottle old enough to worry about the cork, I really would be nervous about using the corkscrew part of this opener, because it could splinter the saturated bottom of the cork.

    But wouldn’t this type of opener have the same risk as a normal corkscrew of disintegrating old fragile corks? It still goes all the way through the cork.

    Question: do you have to turn the corkscrew all the way down until it touches the neck of the bottle? Because in sommelier classes you are taught not to go too deep with the screw, so that you avoid making a hole on the other side of the cork which will leave some residue in the wine.

      这个螺旋丝钻确实太长了,它的作用不过是在插入夹片时酒塞不往下走,不扭到底夹片又够不到酒塞底部。设计缺陷!

    Great video, thanks for sharing. I’m considering purchasing this product. One question, is it not undesirable for the corkscrew to penetrate through the bottom of the cork? I always thought this would risk the possibility of contaminating the wine with crumbles from the bottom of the cork.

      Yes, it is very wrong, and remove just the top part of the capsule is a mistake too. You can see when they pour the wine in the glass, the liquid is touching a 55 years old capsule. Let's say if you have good customers they will pretend a hygienic service I guess

      @@marcobergamaschi2464 it’s not very wrong, I assume that you’ve never used one before, the capsule it’s not that bad if they’ve cleaned it before, if the didn’t that’s wrong

    Why is that piece of metal so expensive, I don't get the reason why it should be.

      Not complicated at all. I watch a video once, tried it myself and successfully opened a bottle of wine on my first try.

    Ridiculous you should be able to open a old bottle of wine with an au so the screw is what damages an old cork! What a gimmicky ridiculous thing don’t it.
