A German chrome plated steel open frame corkscrew with turned wood handle incorporating a dusting brush and hanging ring. The handle is turned into the cork and when the two pins in the shaft engage the top of the second shaft, this reverses and extracts the cork from the bottle. This design originates from the 1880 German patent taken out by Freidrich Kummer and later adapted by his son Louis Kummer. Perfect centre cut bladed worm.

POA
A German steel open frame corkscrew with side rack. The handle with a hanging ring leads to a threaded shank, and the second shaft has a machined side rack. Once the cork is penetrated the flat steel side wind raising handle pulls the cork from the bottle. This design has a cork ejector, the claws on the base of the second shaft, which helps eject the drawn cork from the perfect centre cut bladed worm by turning the handle in the opposite direction, without having to hold the cork. This example is marked “F OTTO MULLER” on the frame.
