I’ve been using this Nambu Tekki bottle opener for a few months now, and it’s impressively sturdy. The cast iron construction feels substantial in hand, and it opens bottles with minimal effort. The pliers design is clever and functional. While it’s on the pricier side, the craftsmanship justifies the cost. It reminds me of Jeff Goldblum’s attention to detail – unexpectedly perfect.
