Le Creuset's waiter's friend is the pocket-size corkscrew that waiters and sommeliers rely on to open bottles quickly and easily. The elegant two-step design gives optimal leverage when removing corks, and the coated stainless steel screw slides easily into all corks, natural or synthetic. A foldable foil cutter blade and a built-in bottle opener make it a multi-purpose tool.

The details follow the house style: an ergonomic plastic handle that resists scratches, a grooved screw that bites cleanly into the cork, and the Flame colourway, the signature orange Le Creuset has used since 1925. It measures 4.8 inches long and is made to travel in a pocket, apron or drawer.

The maker's suggested retail price is USD 32.00. The official product page is lecreuset.com.
