Corkscrews from The FORGE de Laguiole (includes certificate of authenticity)
The town of Laguiole, (pronounced Lie-Yoll), in the mountains of south-central France, has produced the country's finest knives for centuries. During the dark ages, it became known as the nation's premier producer of swords, but as the industrial age approached and the demand for hand-crafted swords declined, the forge turned to its current line of products to create revenue.
Today, steak knives from the Forge de Laguiole are a favorite wedding gift in France, where they are frequently passed between generations as an heirloom gift. And their long-standing reputation for quality is also evident in this superbly crafted line of corkscrews.
Each corkscrew is slightly unique, having been hand-crafted by one of the Forge's artisans. Working with my supplier, I have selected a handful of their most elegant and popular corkscrews - from the aluminum handle to the Thuya Wood handle, and many in between.
Each corkscrew was forged, stamped, flattened, hardened, honed, burnished, and sharpened to the highest of standards. It is the one corkscrew you can buy to withstand a lifetime of daily use (it has a lifetime guarantee) and still survive to be passed on as an heirloom for future generations of wine lovers.
Each Laguiole corkscrew comes with a certificate of authenticity and a gift box. Price includes shipping. Sorry, no gift wrapping available. Ships separately.
NOTE: You may see "Laguiole" corkscrews advertised for as little as $25, and wonder why in hell you would ever pay five to eight times more for one from me. It's a fiar question, and one I invite you to investigate. A bit of research reveals that any "Laguiole" item sold at that price is as much a knock-off as the $15 "Rolex" available from hucksters on the streets of New York, the watches that turn your wrist green after a few weeks of wear. These inexpensive "Laguiole" corkscrews are made by inferior producers in neighboring towns (or even in Taiwan, or using parts produced in Asia).
So to be sure you're getting the real dea - the only product with a lifetime guarantee and certificate of authenticity - be sure to buy a corkscrew made by the Forge de Laguiole.
