Laguiole Champagne Saber

Heighten the drama of any special occasion by slicing open a celebratory bottle of sparkling wine with this heirloom-quality champagne saber. Each saber is made by a single master cutler in France's Laguiole region, famed for its expertly crafted knives. This saber is the work of a single master cutler whose craft begins with shaping the horn and concludes with fitting the blade. The blade is made of ultrastrong, corrosion-resistant Sandvick stainless steel. Finely grained, water-resistant Zebu horn handle provides a sure grip. The decorative chasing on the metal spine serves as the signature of the craftsman who made the tool. Includes an attractive storage box. Made in France.

This was the perfect gift for my husband. We have so much fun sabering champagne bottles.
hint: find the seam on the bottle and follow that seam or you will have champagne all over you ;-)

Don't really see the point of using a sword
May 26, 2012
Using a sword to open up a bottle of champagne seems a bit of overkill--like using a hatchet to get rid of a fly on your friend's forehead. It leaves shards of glass everywhere and more wine spilled on the ground than salvaged for the glass. It would have been better--and would have achieved the dramatic intent--if I had used an axe. The champagne sabre does work well on pinatas or opening wrapped packages at parties.

Not a fair review
Sabering is a fairly easy technique to learn. Done properly, the glass breaks clean and smooth. Nor does this review have anything to do with the quality of the product itself. A chainsaw won't cut a tree if you don't know how to use it.

I would like to counter this poor review with the question of the reviewers knowledge of sabering champagne bottles. I'll leave you with this instructional YouTube video:
