You never know when you might want to pop open a bottle of wine. KeySmart’s stainless steel wine accessory puts a corkscrew in your pocket.

OTOTO makes a variety of playful kitchen accessories. The Vino works just like any other corkscrew, only it looks like a bat flapping its wings while it opens your wine bottles. We like to imagine it’s a vampire bat, and that isn’t red wine, but blood in the glasses.
