Waiter's corkscrew

I’ve had a lot of trouble lately with my old corkscrew, mostly because of the rise of synthetic corks.  So when I saw this little beauty being recommended by Bon Appetit, I sat up and took notice.  It’s just $10 at WineStuff.  The trick, apparently, is to look for a corkscrew with a Teflon-coated worm (the screw part).  This one by Pulltex fits the bill nicely and inexpensively.
