    Most corkscrew models have a very similar twin with a Phillips instead. Since I don’t drink wine, I’ve always gone with those.

    On the other hand, the corkscrews can be used in various other ways. Among other things, they make a good improvised marlin spike for untying tight knots.

    There are also several kinds of accessories that can be carried inside the corkscrew. Victorinox makes a glasses-sized Phillips that for that. There are also aftermarket fire starters and other gadgets.
