The Hidebound Bottle Opener by Machine Era Co.

Are bottle openers the newest status symbols? I feel like I have seen a lot of swanky, interesting, well-made bottle openers on the design front. Perhaps they are the calling card du jour for young designers showing their style and skills? Take this one for instance, which sort of begs to be held. It weighs 5 ounces and was milled from solid bar cold formed steel. There's a handsome leather strap so you can hang it up in the kitchen. Pricey, solid - a great gift or little splurge.
