A corkscrew is a tool for drawing stopping corks from wine bottles.
Generally, consists of a pointed metallic helix (often called the
"worm") attached to a handle. The user grips the handle and screws
the metal point through the cork, entwining the cork and corkscrew
so that moving one moves the other. Corkscrews are necessary
because corks themselves, being small and smooth, are difficult to
grip and remove, particularly when inserted fully into an
inflexible glass bottle. The handle of the corkscrew, often a
horizontal bar of wood attached to the screw, allows for a
commanding grip to ease removal of the stopper. Corkscrew handles
may incorporate levers that further increase the amount of force
that can be applied outwards upon the cork. It is nowadays used in
Swiss Army knives.
