Description |
This corkscrew with an exposed bearing on the top of the frame type Monopol, these Switzerland corkscrews recognize themselves easily with the particular handle shape. This nickel-plated steel corkscrew has a captive shaft of the bell so that only a rotary movement of the handle is possible. This corkscrew is equipped with a long full worm (half of the stem). A crown of 12 balls is inserted between the top of the cage and a disc out of chilled steel placed under the base of the handle. The stem and the handle are made interdependent by a crossing pin. This corkscrew was bought in Ontario (Canada). |
