Amazon.com Review It's important not to run a corkscrew through the metal foil on top of a wine bottle since it can dull the screw. A foil cutter does a clean, even job of removing the foil cap and presenting the top of the cork. Made of durable plastic and covered with a rubberized, matte black finish, this foil cutter from the Velvet line is elegant and easy to grip. Simply position it on top of the bottle, squeeze firmly, and twist. A great gift for the wine aficionado, the Velvet foil cutter comes packaged in a molded clear acrylic case. --Ann Bieri
Product Description Avoid foil frustration. The Rabbit Foil Cutter from Metrokane is the perfect complement to your Rabbit Corkscrew. A simple squeeze and twist of the patented "bottle cap" design is all it takes to neatly remove foil wine caps. An essential wine accessory for proper wine service. Works with all types of bottles. Comfortable ergonomic design is easy to use.

Works like a charm every time! February 4, 2008 reddogs (Los Angeles,CA) This item is designed to remove the foil over the cork. You put it on,squeeze,turn the bottle around and presto!Flip off the foil! Ready to remove the cork with your cork screw. Easy to use. Stick the foil cutter back in its plastic container and that's that. Drink up!
Plastic/rubber fell apart December 3, 2007 Connie (San Francisco, CA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I got one of these because Metrokane tends to have well designed, nice looking products. It worked just fine for cutting foils off wine bottles, but it failed in quality - the rubber/plastic (not quite sure what it was) seemed to corrode over time and became sticky. It was not like that when we first purchased it. We tried cleaning it with soap and also tried picking off the sticky bits that collected on the black part to no avail. We ended up tossing this as it became too icky to use and went for a screwpull cutter instead.
too much effort July 23, 2007 Ferris Hudson (MA USA) This foil cutter is awkward to use, requiring a great deal of hand strength to squeeze it together as you rotate it around the foil on the wine bottle. I'm the only one in the house who can make it work. It also doesn't work well enough when the bottle has plastic instead of foil. I don't recommend it.
Not impressed December 29, 2005 Matthew Hunt (Johnstown, PA USA) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This foil cutter requires more effort (a stronger squeeze) than it really ought to, and too much turning. The built-in foil cutter on my "Boomerang" brand waiter's corkscrew works more reliably, and requires less effort, and the whole corkscrew hardly costs more than this foil cutter. I had expected that a purpose-built, standalone foil cutter would excel at the task, but this device came up short.
Don't bother! October 27, 2005 Kay Tee 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Horrible! Only two cutting wheels. Does not fit on bottles with an extra wide neck. Flimsy. I would guess that this will break in a month or two. Stick to a Screwpull.
