Product Description The product of 25 years of innovation, this handsome gift set by Le Creuset features a sophisticated design to match the tastes of its users. Utilizing a patented double-helix design and new Activ-Ball technology, removal and ejection of the cork is effortlessly accomplished in one fluid motion. Completing the set, a four-wheel foil cutter easily removes foil and acts as a stylish base when the corkscrew is not in use. Five-year guarantee.
Amazon.com Review Whether it's to keep cork particles out of expensive wine or assist the fragile-wristed cork puller, the Trilogy corkscrew and foil cutter set from Screwpull features one of the world's most sophisticated instruments for opening wine. Not only does this clever table corkscrew take the work out of cork removal for effortless bottle opening, it now pushes the cork off the screw, too, thanks to Screwpull's ingenious new Activ-ball mechanism. To open, simply turn the handle and the screw drives into the cork's center. Turn the other way and the corkscrew slides the cork effortlessly out of the bottle. Then, while holding the corkscrew (and not the cork); turn the handle again and voila--the Activ-ball pushes the cork right off the screw! Pinch down on the sides to keep the cork from falling off and reinsert it with the same ease. The new, Trilogy Foilcutter in this set features a patented, 4-wheel cutter design that cuts quickly and cleanly. Soft touch panels ensure an easy grip, as razor-sharp cutters slice their way around with effortless twisting. It also doubles as a stand for the corkscrew. Designed in Europe and engineered with the highest quality materials for strength and durability, Screwpull's new Trilogy line also features luxurious, soft-touch panels for extra comfort. Non-stick coating and perfectly shaped points ensure frictionless opening. Plus, this innovative new line of Trilogy corkscrews and bottle-opening accessories was awarded the 2004 Cooking Club of America Kitchen Tested Seal of Approval from Cooking Pleasures magazine. Covered by a 5-year warranty, this handy device will stay sharp and cut smoothly for years. --Brian Olson

Great Gift Idea! January 23, 2008 With the included foil cutter, this Screwpull model cork remover is a smart, quick and easy product to use, as well as a great gift. The foil cutter is a safe way to remove the foil cap on all wine bottles with ease and the cork screw removes the cork from the bottle without pulling as well as ejecting the cork without touching it. This may not be the fanciest cork screw, but it is an innovative, high quality means of all wine bottle cork removal.
excellent product for a woman July 14, 2007 If you are a woman and have trouble opening wine bottles with other screwpulls, this one is for you. You don't need to be particularly strong, just stick it in and keep turning. The cork will come out by itself. They used to be less expensive, but still are a better option than those super expensive ones that can open your bottle really fast but take a lot of storage space.
Fine corkscrew and foil cutter...just one improvement... August 19, 2006 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This Screwpull set is a fine addition to anyone's corkscrew set. It's ease and, might I add, safety, are far above those of the average waiter's corkscrew.
I didn't by the set for the foilcutter, but I'm glade I did. It's simple, easy, and works like a charm. Easily a 5-star devise for 5-bucks.
The corkscrew is also the best I've used. It's easy, although is might be a tad more difficult with a weak grip (you need to keep the bottle from spinning). It easily lifts the cork from the bottle. My only complaint, and why I withheld the final star, is that the corkscrew does not always travel down the center of the cork. If it goes to the edges, the cork tends to break off little pieces into the wine. 4-stars, but since it's the bulk of the cost, the set also gets 4.
Would I buy again? You bet!
Screwpull, Screwpull, Screwpull - the only thing for corks! August 8, 2006 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have used most of their products over the years - from the original turn corkscrew to the really expensive lever models. This is a new twist (pardon the pun!) on the classic.
Somehow the pressure applied by this corkscrew will allow the most feeble cork to turn and lift.
The design can not be improved too much - so simple. This is the corkscrew everyone should use.
