Amazon.com Review
Wing-style corkscrews make pulling corks about as foolproof as possible. If you haven't used one of these before, here's how they work: place this attractive stainless-steel corkscrew from Oneida over the cork (after cutting away the foil around the top of the bottle) and turn the loop at the top--the wings rise up as the corkscrew sinks into the cork. Once the wings are pointing straight up, lever them down to withdraw the cork. The cork comes out straight, so there's almost no risk it will--horrors--break. For the beer and pop drinkers, the loop at the top also functions as a bottle opener. --Dale Steinke
Product Description
The ultimate no-nonsense bar implement, this corkscrew is simple to use, quick on the draw, and easy on the hands as well as the eyes. Oneida barware sports a classic look, reflecting the intrinsic aesthetic pleasures that come from fixing a mixed drink with elegant, hand-polished tools of the trade. Accuracy and style are the trademarks of a superior home mixologist, and both are more easily procured with the proper accouterments.

This review is from: Oneida Wing Corkscrew (Kitchen)
This is an easy to use corkscrew that suffers from one major fault -- the screw is of the closed design. What you want to look for in a good corkscrew (even an inexpensive one) is an open screw design (the Screwpull is the best example of an open screw design). The Oneida model is prone to break or split corks because the screw displaces a large amount of cork as it is forced in. While this model may work well for newer, stiff corks, it will split older, dry corks. Look at other models that use the open screw design and you will be much happier with the results.

Works fine, probably overpriced,

This review is from: Oneida Wing Corkscrew (Kitchen)
This corkscrew performs the basic function of opening wine bottles well. However, do not use it with aged or fragile corks as it will break them apart; if you're a serious wine enthusiast you'll probably want to look for something else. Also, it seems durable, but it is a little shaky and is on the high end of the price range for a minimal corkscrew, as it really won't do anything a basic $5-$7 corkscrew can't do.
