......got a bit of a problem....lately buying nice corkscrews..anyone else like this?

Over the course of the last few months, I've purchased a few nice waiter style corkscrews. Not sure why I did this...but I think it had something to do with the rabbit corkscrew that I was using over Christmas. I must have opened several dozen wines with the rabbit corkscrew and by the end of it, it was just TOO EASY... I did not like this. It felt artificial. So not entirely happy with my $2.99 waiter style corkscrew, I went on a bit of an ebay shopping day.

Picked up first a Sabatier Laguiole..an impulse purchase,...should've did my studies first....what a piece of junk. Looked great when it arrived,...fell apart in my hand after a few bottles.

Then I realized that there were so many different "Laguiole", and did pay for a real one. Nice....It just feels so solid in your hands. Bent it though opening up a bottle of moscato d'asti....

Since then, have picked up a few more $5o+ waiter style corkscrews including a Trudeau, and a few others.

Anyone eles with this fascination?...sickness... but this way, this is not in any way a statement against screwcaps which I do not mind.
