Q: I am looking for the cork puller that Alton Brown picks up at 7:58 in this episode of Good Eats — he demonstrates how to use it.
Does anyone know what brand it is and where to buy it?

Editor: The video that Cara is referring to is here:
• Good Eats S13E10P1 - Fermentation Nation
Cara, this is a Zyliss corkscrew — but it doesn't seem to be currently available.
• Zyliss Corkscrew With Foil Cutter - Not available, Amazon.
Readers, can you recommend another source, or an alternate corkscrew?

We have one that looks like that and I thought it was made by Zyliss. Alton Brown features Zyliss products a lot, so that makes sense, although when I search for it on Google, I can't find it. Maybe they changed their design?
If you can find one, they are especially great for getting broken corks out!
While it looks like a good corkscrew, I really love the double hinged waiter corkscrew for myself. They're small, cheap ($5 at TJ's) and extremely easy to use. Unlike a traditional waiter's corkscrew, it has two catches where you push against the bottle, so you get much better leverage. That eliminates the problem with the older style that Alton talks about. I would only upgrade to something like what's in the article if I was hosting a lot of parties and regularly needed to open 6 bottles of wine at once.
Oh, I remember that design! Basically, you just place it over the top of the bottle, and the worm works its way into the cork, the cork goes up the worm and out of the bottle.
In terms of function, the closest one is the OXO

I totally agree with louiedog. After opening about 3 bottles of wine with a double-hinged wine key, you are proficient.
I have easily opened over fifty bottles of wine in a week (I'm a bartender) and the double hinged wine key can't be beat for price or simplicity.
Tip: If a bottle has foil on top, the foil can almost always be removed by tugging it off with your hand. I would never do that if someone was purchasing a bottle of wine, but if you are at home or selling wine by the glass it really speeds things up. You also don't have to worry about any foil getting into the wine if you pull the collar off. And, you don't run the risk of breaking the top of the bottle, which can happen if you use some of the foil cutters out there.
I agree with louiedog and zaba. I used to be a server at a wine bar, and this was by far the best tool to use. Not to mention that it easily fits in your pocket.
I have one that is just like that from Tupperware, I'm pretty sure they still sell it on there site. Easy as pie to use!!
