Fantes Cousin Giulio’s Self-Pull Corkscrew wine opener removes corks from wine bottles with little effort. Its heavy cast-metal body with satin finish and comfort-grip handle blend elegance with function. Also known as a screwpull wine opener, it’s a powerful cork puller with lots of leverage! Simply place it over the bottleneck and turn the handle. The non-stick helix spiral glides into the cork, up to 1.5-inches deep, and pulls the cork as the handle turns. The stepped inner liner keeps it steady during use and protects bottlenecks. This wine bottle opener is a must-have of wine accessories. Fits up to 1.5-inch diameter bottlenecks and stores easily in kitchen gadget drawers. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth. Made in Italy by Ghidini, Europe’s premier wine corkscrew manufacturer. Fante’s, The Italian Market Original since 1906. Brought to you by HIC Harold Import Co.

This Works well, takes some muscle
I previously had one made like this. It lasted for several years (we only open a wine bottle once a week or so). When it finally broke, it was the glue that let go, and it fell apart. This brand of corkscrew seems sturdier, and it is heavy. So far, it works well, but it is not for anyone with weak wrists or hand strength. I do recommend it for others, though.

Well built. Solid. Works easily every time
I like this style of wine opener. It's very easy to use. You can't do it wrong (unless you decide to start the screw into the cork at near the edge of the cork. This feels like it will last a lifetime. I went through 3 Screwpull of the same style. For some reason, they were made of plastic, and the more difficult to extract corks put too much pressure. All cracked in the same way.I like how the screw has a tactile feel winged handled too.

The one you want for the home
Forget the rabbit-style openers currently in vogue, the ones that look like an instrument of torture and more often than not push the cork in. This is the type of opener you want, and this one is elegant in it's effectiveness and simplicity, as well as the quality. It seats over the lip of the bottle so the corkscrew is always centered. No more corks getting pushed in or a corkscrew going in at an angle and breaking the cork. It takes but a few flicks of the wrist and voila, your cork is out and held in the shaft until you take it out. And it fits neatly in a drawer, unlike those ungainly rabbit-style openers. Don't forget your foil cutter and stopper.

Durability
Love it. The first one developed leaks along the seams after 2 years, so I had to buy another one. Hope this one lasts longer.

well designed and works
You screw the helix into the cork and continue to turn and it extracts the cork. The housing grasps the cork and pulls it of the helix. It is very slick, works well and does not require any bruit strength.
