I learned about the Durand wine opener on another thread and bought oe. The Durand has saved many a bottle where I tried to open via corkscrew, Rabbit, etc, and the cork broke or was stuck, but this one time…well, here's my story: I attempted to open a bottle with a corkscrew, but the cork just wouldn’t budge. I removed the corkscrew and pulled out my trusty Durand to save the day one more time. After inserting the corkscrew part, as I tried to wedge in the tongs part, the cork loosened so quickly that as I wiggled the tong part into the bottle sides, the cork slid right down into the bottle. Fortunately, the corkscrew part kept the cork from the wine and I was able to finagle the cork out of the bottle. Whew!! Anyone else have a Durand story? Btw, the wine was delish. Not sure what happened to cause the cork to stick like that.
