True Fabrications Truetap
The best corkscrew
Just a few bucks gets you a reliable and easy-to-use manual opener. The double-hinge makes pulling the cork out of a bottle a simple process.
Buying Options
*At the time of publishing, the price was $6.
Unlike wing corkscrews, the True Fabrications’ Truetap is compact, slim, and affordable, which means you can buy a couple and keep extras in your desk, glove compartment, or backyard—so you’re always ready to open up a bottle.

OXO Steel
Runner-up
The OXO is similar to the Truetap, but for a few bucks more, you get a soft grip that some might find more comfortable.
Buying Options
*At the time of publishing, the price was $15.
If you can’t find the Truetap, go with OXO’s Steel Double Lever Waiter’s Corkscrew. It works the same way as our main pick, but shows OXO’s style. Though it’s few dollars more expensive, it at least comes from a well-known company and isn’t a knockoff being sold by someone claiming to be a different company.
