Extra long handle for increased leverage. Elongated spiral for long corks.Serrated blade The Capitano® is unique because of its special elongated spiral. The pitch (distance between the twists) has been increased for easy, more positive insertion into the cork. The nickel plated spirals have the filet, or etched line, running down the spiral which cuts into the cork more quickly. Teflon® coated spiral is a smooth, non-filet version.
