Right- I saw that, on the CS4 and XE6, and may just pick one up. I have to look at them in person again, to see how large they really are, as I have a specific carry in mind. If they are small enough to be carried the way I currently carry a Micra (in addition to a locking folder), then I don't mind nearly so much that it doesn't lock.

I'm a bit skeptical about using such a short handle as a lever to remove corks, though- has anyone actually tried one of these? I know it will work as a t-handle corkscrew (brute force, basically), but I wonder if it works as what we in the US usually call a "waiter's corkscrew" (Laguiole type), where you lever the cork out. It's clearly intended to, but... it's very short.

Say, while we're on the subject, Frenchy, can you settle more than one argument I've heard as to how "Laguiole" should really be pronounced? I've heard some remarkable variations. :-)
