Sommelier’s Corkscrew with a Folding Knife

A Masterpiece Honoring a Legacy

The Soft Machine® Blade – Le Pierre Edition is more than a corkscrew. It is a tribute. Created in homage to Pierre, a cornerstone of L’Atelier du Vin’s story, this edition fuses precision engineering with the warmth of natural materials — ebony wood, solid brass, and polished stainless steel.
Hand-finished with care, this model redefines the wine tool as an object of meaning. It is designed for those who value gesture, material, and memory.

Three Functions, One Seamless Tool

At its heart, the Soft Machine® Blade – Le Pierre carries the same patented rack-and-pinion system found in all Soft Machine® corkscrews — allowing for effortless, vertical cork extraction in a single fluid motion, with no twisting or tearing. But it goes further.

This edition includes two blades:
– A small, integrated foil-cutting blade, discreet and precise.
– A larger folding blade, inspired by classic pocketknives, ideal for slicing cheeses, breads, or cured meats during a tasting or picnic.

Together with the integrated bottle opener, this tool is a complete companion for wine lovers — practical, compact, and timeless.

A Design Rooted in Tradition

The silhouette takes inspiration from traditional folding knives, yet is fully reinterpreted through the lens of wine service. The mirror-polished stainless steel shines against the depth of the hand-varnished ebony, while solid brass details complete the piece with character and weight.
Each part is assembled and finished by hand, and each edition carries a unique story in its wood grain and polish.
Whether placed beside a vintage bottle or slipped into a sommelier’s pocket, the Soft Machine® Blade – Le Pierre speaks of craftsmanship, utility, and refined purpose.

Portable, Practical, and Personal

Perfect for outdoor tastings, travel, or intimate wine gatherings, this multi-functional corkscrew is designed to be kept close. Its versatility makes it an ideal gift for collectors, sommeliers, or anyone who celebrates wine as an experience beyond the glass.
Delivered in a black matte protective gift box, it is made to be stored with care after each use.
