corkscrews
Spiral bottle openers
Corkscrews are devices for removing corks from bottles, consisting of a pointed metal spiral attached to a handle.
The spiral shape extends to anything with tight helical turns: corkscrew curls, a corkscrew staircase.
As a verb, to corkscrew is to move in a twisting spiral: The plane corkscrewed toward the ground.
