I just couldn’t resist. This Sveid corkscrew
is so outrageous I had to comment. Don’t get me wrong. I absolutely love gadgets. But when I can buy a new car and take a vacation for the same price as a contraption to open a bottle of wine… I might just go ahead and use my $10 double-hinge Pull Tab wine key and save that $71,000 for something else.

How important is it to have a wine opener made from 52 pieces of aviation titanium and a finger tip lever of 18 karat gold? (You can also request platinum.) Check out the demonstration video on the Sveid site.

Ah, the luxurious life. Hmm.
