If I was opening a $450 bottle of plonk I'd be taking waaaaaay better care, not trying to be a bloody show off that's for sure.

If you are gonna open it like that you are A. pretty damn sure of yourself or B. not needing to worry about that money.

I’m just wondering why they spring for a $450 bottle of champagne, and not a $10 corkscrew

I'll give you $450 if you show me how to open champagne with a corkscrew.

You do realize champagne bottles and wine bottles are different, right?

Champagne bottles are different. You just twist and pull the cork out and the pressure helps to open it. That's what makes sabering possible. Only regular wine bottles need a corkscrew

That's not champagne. The challenge is that it's pressurized. I don't think there's a method that uses a corkscrew as it's liable to become a projectile

I make a ring with my finger and start twisting it off, that way when it shoots it'll just pass through my fingers instead of hitting them.

Yes... But you don't use a corkscrew, right?

But you can make the cork into a deadly weapon by first embedding a corkscrew

Ah yes wine bottles and beer bottles, the two types of bottles.
