Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Even though a corkscrew spiral, or worm, is good for up to 1,000 cork removals, it will wear out eventually. This replacement worm fits all Metrokane Rabbit and Houdini corkscrews. Made of high-tensile steel, the worm features mini-bearings in the head and is coated with a triple layer of non-stick finish, which enables it to glide in and out of the cork with ease. The lever-style mechanism of the Metrokane corkscrew pulls the cork from the bottle with equal ease. To install, unscrew the protective cap on the corkscrew, remove the old worm, insert the new one, and screw the cap back on. The next bottle of wine awaits your drinking pleasure. --Ann Bieri

5.0 out of 5 stars Really helps, and a lot cheaper than a new opener!, January 5, 2011

My Metrokane Rabbit was getting harder and harder to use, and I was about to search for a new one. But for $10, I figured this would not hurt to try. Voila! It is a BIG help. It is much easier now to get the worm into the cork, and to get the cork out of the worm when done.

BTW, I had no idea the worm was replaceable but it turn out to be obvious when I saw the new one. There is a cap on top of the gadget that holds the worm. It unscrews, and the worm just slides up through it.

With Sharper Image out of business, I was concerned about finding a replacement for the worm in their 'rabbit'-type lever corkscrew I have used for years. This replacement worm is identical to the spare provided with the original corkscrew, and is priced well.

At one time we LOVED our RABBIT wine opener but after a few years it became almost impossible to open a bottle of wine. We complained and complained but never did anything about it until last month when we ordered a new WORM. It now works like a charm.
