How to Remove a Cork From a Winged Corkscrew
- 1). Press the corkscrew handle down to expose the metal spiral with the cork attached. It may be easiest to hold the wings of the corkscrew with one hand and press the handle down with the other.
- 2). Grab the cork attached to the corkscrew's spiral with one hand.
- 3). Turn the handle of the corkscrew counterclockwise until the cork is removed. There should be some resistance as the spiral rotates out of the cork.
