Product Description
Like the handcuff king it's named for, the Metrokane Houdini lever-style corkscrew works so easily it practically defies explanation. The Houdini was designed by the innovative company that created the Rabbit corkscrew, and is both simple and effortless to use. Just close the side handles over the neck of the bottle, pull up, and--voila!--the corks removed. Another up-and-down movement pops the cork off the corkscrew. Metrokane corkscrews are independently tested for 20,000 cork pulls; tests assume replacement of the spiral after 1,000 pulls. Made with durable all-metal gear parts, the Houdini works with any size wine bottle. Its polycarbonate handles are ergonomically-designed and finished with a polished luster.
Amazon.com Review
The Metrokane Houdini corkscrew is so easy and effortless to use, it's practically magic. Lever action does all the work for you--so no yanking at stubborn corks or finding broken bits floating in your glass of Merlot. Simply place handles over the wine bottle's neck, push down to engage the cork, pull up, and abracadabra--it's out. Another simple pull of the lever removes the cork from the screw. Ergonomically-correct handles are turned down for a better grip, and the opener is exceptionally comfortable to use. Designed by the same people who make the acclaimed Rabbit corkscrew, the Houdini offers the same mechanism at a lower price. This corkscrew comes with a foil cutter and extra screw, and is covered by a five-year warranty. --Mary Park

 BEST corkscrew I've ever used! November 6, 2006

This is a well made corkscrew with a fantastic design. It is so easy to uncork a bottle of wine and only takes a little bit of strength...I no longer have to go searching for my husband when I want to open a new bottle. The only drawback is that it doesn't fit in my utensil drawer so I've got it stashed away with my appliances.

I ordered 10 of these to give as Christmas gifts- They were great- ordered several colors. Put them together with a bottle of wine and the gifts were a hit! I even kept one for myself! Great item and great price. Super quick delivery too!
love it! February 16, 2010

Now that I've had the Metrokane Houdini for half a year and opened maybe a hundred bottles of wine, I can attest to its ease of operation (better than the Bonjour, for instance) and its durability -- there's been no diminution of performance, no sign of wear. And it's truly a great-looking device!

Great corkscrew to have, although it doesn't work as well as the rabbit. It's close, though. Highly recommend.
