How to use

Place the corkscrew’s spiral (worm) centrally over the cork and rotate clockwise until the worm is securely embedded. Use the leverage provided by the handle to pull the cork straight out, applying steady upward pressure. If the cork resists, back the worm out slightly and reinsert to improve grip. After removal, wipe the worm clean and store the corkscrew in a dry place to preserve its finish and function.

Recommendations

For best results, ensure the spiral is centered before turning and avoid excessive force that can break fragile corks. Regularly check for wear and keep the tool dry after cleaning to maintain smooth operation and appearance.
