A traditional corkscrew that you do not see so many of nowadays.
The design was patented in 1949 and for many years was the waiters' favourite corkscrew in French bistros.
This was because besides passing the blades along the cap and pulling the cork out, you could also use it as a wine stopper. The waiters could therefore taste the wine, without being noticed, and then insert the cork again.
Ideal to open older wines with old, fragile corks, without damaging the cork with the spindle.
