Product Description
Here at Fishboy we've used this type of corkscrew for a number of years and it has always been a great conversation starter! Not only does it look sharp but it opens wine easily and with a dramatic "plop" sound. This item disappeared from the market for a while but now we are happy to be able to bring this cool product to our customers.---REVIEW - "Not only does it easily open wine bottle but it looks cool, makes for a dramatic show and creates a nice pop sound which makes every bottle even more of a little celebration.Closed this corkscrew looks like a fish. It's mouth holds the business end, a cork screw that you twist into a wine cork. You then simply firmly grasp the wine bottle in one hand and with the other pull on the fishes tail. The fish expands accordian like with a multitude of levers and sooner than you can say "cabernet sauvignon", the cork pops out with a nice, well "pop" sound and your guests all applaud.The levers in the design transform the small amount of force needed by the operator into larger force needed to remove the cork from the bottle. The lever mechanism multiplies force in a pricipal is called "lazy tongs" (or hinged lattice" or "compound levers") and been proven in corkscrews since the 1920's Zig Zag corkscrew."

Archimedes lives in this corkscrew! January 8, 2009
I won my Amazing Fish corkscrew at a Wine tasting in Australia over 15 years ago. br /br /It has served me well in two cities, two states, two countries, two Continents and two hemispheres and provided entertainment to guests in all of the above!br /br /Unfortunately, the screw broke after much Christmas action, but I have ordered a replacement as the regular corkscrews aren't up to ease of using the Amazing Fish!
It does the job...with style September 17, 2007
This corkscrew wine bottle opener is just yet another excuse to drink more wine :D It is very easy to use and works each and every time. It was a bit bigger than what I had anticipated, but no biggie.br /br /Overall, I think it is a great looking corkscrew opener that gets the job done.
