Laguiole Corkscrew manufacturing process
The Sommelier, also known as Corkscrew knife, can be considered an elitist version of the famous Limonadier, the famous Tire-Cork popular present in all the bars of France.
Made of premium materials, our Laguiole en Aubrac® Corkscrews consist in all cases of a solid wood handle, horn or bone, enclosing a stainless steel spine on which is articulated in its middle:
- A delicately conical corkscrew with 5 turns.
- At its head: a one step lever called “crapaud”, at the base of which there is a notch acting as a place of installation to create the leverage
- The spring / dorsal spine: a capsule cutter with an integrated serrated blade allows easy cutting of the aluminum casing which encloses the neck of wine bottles.
- A bottle opener for sodas is also present at the base of the capsule cutter.
