Integrated micro-serrated hinged blade is intended for precise cuts.
This is the original double-hinge architecture, made in Spain—not a prestige-priced imitation. Independent tests specifically praise its sharp worm, balanced metal handle and fulcrum spacing; the price buys geometry and robust metal parts.
A slim, balanced pocket tool whose curved, soft-touch-lined handle and fixed two-stage fulcrums make the learned motion unusually clean and composed.
Iron with Soft-Touch polymer insert
The 70 g metal body stays composed under leverage; the insert improves grip and hand feel.
Teflon-coated stainless steel
Low-friction entry works on natural and synthetic corks with less tearing.
Nickel/chrome-plated steel
The articulated double hinge produces a controlled, progressive vertical pull.
Micro-serrated stainless steel
Designed for a precise capsule cut rather than a separate disposable cutter.
Robust steel/iron construction for long service; no meaningful wear parts, so replace the whole key only if its pivot eventually loosens.
