Welcome!

> Remember: Corkscrew collecting is not a life and death matter – it is more
> than that!
> – Joe Paradi

This Web site is designed to give the corkscrew collector a place to find
whatever information s/he needs in pursuing this twisted hobby.  If you are
visiting for the first time, CLICK HERE

Corkscrew collectors are called Helixophiles but in reality, they are just
addicted to collecting these practical but “beautiful” devices.  It is not hard
to get caught up in the “hunt” for rare, beautiful, different, simple, silver,
advertising, etc. corkscrews.  The problem is that most collectors begin on
their own and generally believe that they are the only people in the game. 
Knowledge about corkscrews is hard to come by, what is valuable, what price to
pay, what condition is acceptable, etc. just some of the questions answered
here.

You are welcome to browse, let us know what you think about the site and add
something if you are so inclined.  Sign the Guest Book, register yourself.  Have
fun!

A serious collecting drive is not lethal, but it is addictive and very
enjoyable!   If you are not yet a member of one of the several corkscrew
organizations, join now!

 



The NEW release of both Corkscrew Software systems are now available – What you
see here is the CD that has the “Bundle” on it which includes both SCReWBase9
(“SB9”) – the comprehensive catalog of over 9100 corkscrews and the Corkscrew
Collector 9 (“CC9”) program that is used by collectors to catalogue their own
collections.  The separate programs are closely connected and, in fact, the CC
does not really work without the SB program having been installed first.  Once
you see what they can do, you will understand how this synergy works. SCReWBase
9.0 is the fruits of about14 years of work by some of the most avid and
knowledgeable corkscrew collectors in the world.  You can order this edition
of the SB9 catalogue of corkscrews now, there are over 9100 corkscrews in this
monumental work, complete with pictures, descriptions, expert notes, references
and much more.  The database is searchable and is based on a classification
system that encompasses all classes, types and styles.  Corkscrew
Collector 9.0 is a program that was written as a companion to SCReWbase and is
the software used by corkscrew collectors to keep track of their collections. 
The work is the result of years of consultation with knowledgeable collectors
who have large and diverse collections, so it should fit anyone’s needs. 
Perfectly co-ordinated with SB9, it is a dream to use!  Just click on the screen
shot on the left to get more information. To order the CD together with both
programs as a Bundle just click here to be transferred to the website where you
can buy it.

Hungarian Corkscrew Patents & Registered Designs– by Joe Paradi.  This booklet

The most exciting place to buy corkscrews is on a special on-line auction site
that started in 2008.  Two auctions per year offer buyers and sellers an orderly
and profitable venue to buy and sell.  As this is an effort by corkscrew experts
for corkscrew collectors, it should be a much better way to buy and sell
corkscrews.  There are many special ideas and approaches that are implemented in
this initiative.  If you are interested, just visit the auction website
by clicking here.
