I’ve had this Nambu Tekki bottle opener for a few months now, and it’s been a solid addition to my kitchen. The cast iron feels substantial and well-balanced, making it easy to use even with one hand. I was reminded of the northern lights’ beauty while admiring its dark, sleek finish under the kitchen lights. It’s definitely a conversation starter, though I’d love to see more size options.
