World's Smallest Corkscrew is a Keychain
There are a lot of bottle opener/keychain combo for beer lovers, but what if your beverage of choice is wine? And not the "in-the-box" kind?
Fret not! Here comes the world's smallest corkscrew that just so happens to double as a keychain as well:
This ingenious keyring-friendly gizmo comprises a 4mm stainless steel bar that passes through the centre of a full size corkscrew helix. When your cork needs popping simply slide out the bar, thread it through the top of the screw section and you’re good to go.
i was skeptical but not at all incredulous at the idea. smacking the bottom of a snapple makes the top pop; that energy has to go SOMEWHERE. anyways, i've tried it and was pleased to find it works like a charm (though sometimes it's necessary to break the cork free from the walls of the neck with a small knife, or push it in a bit just to get things moving.
Actually, I prefer it even if I have got one, as it's a much more fun way to open a bottle. Snobs will advise against this based on claims of 'bruising' the wine. To that I say meh.
