I've always admired the better Laguiole wooden corkscrews from france,
but be sure to shop carefully. I have seen Laguiole products (from
the town of Laguiole) for less than $15 up to more than $100. The
cheap ones are poorly finished, and the more expensive ones are
beautiful works of craftsmanship and art.
