Champagne Saber with Golden Handle & Wooden Gift Box

The tradition of opening champagne with a saber is a ceremonial practice that has been passed down for centuries. This unique method of uncorking champagne bottles is believed to have originated during the Napoleonic Wars in the 18th century.

At that time, the primary weapon of Napoleon's hussars, the elite cavalry unit, was the saber. According to legend, when the sergeants returned home in triumph, the citizens would present them with numerous bottles of champagne to express their praise and gratitude. Since the soldiers were on horseback, they found it challenging to free their hands to remove the corks from the wine bottles. As a solution, they used their sabers to swiftly cut through the platinum plate and cork, opening the bottles in a single, dramatic gesture.

This captivating ritual has become a centerpiece of many celebrations and events, allowing individuals to be the focus of attention. The Azauvc Champagne Knife, inspired by Napoleonic sabres, allows you to recreate this impressive display.

The Azauvc Champagne Knife is crafted with precision and attention to detail. Featuring a stainless steel blade with a unique metal pattern, each knife is polished individually to ensure a flawless finish. The handguard is finely crafted, with a golden copper wire inlay that complements the high-quality sword tassels, adding to the overall aesthetic appeal.

To ensure a proper champagne opening, it is essential to follow a few key steps. First, the champagne bottle must be properly chilled, with the bottle mouth particularly cold. After freezing, the bottle should be wiped dry to remove any condensation. Next, tear off any tin seals on the outside of the champagne to prevent interference with the saber's action. Undo the wire loop and snap it over the top crown cap seal. Some sparkling wines may not have a crown seal, allowing for the entire wire loop to be removed.

Hold the bottom of the champagne bottle with your left hand, positioning it at a 45-degree angle diagonally forward. With your right hand, firmly grip the champagne knife and make a swift, decisive swing to cut off the cork. This technique ensures a dramatic and controlled opening, with the champagne spraying out without any glass fragments entering the bottle.

The Azauvc Champagne Knife comes housed in a premium black wooden box, protected by a velvet cloth. Whether it is a collection piece or a thoughtful gift, this champagne knife is sure to impress. Its unparalleled way of opening champagne, combined with its beautifully crafted design, will make you the center of attention at any banquet or party, creating a lively and memorable atmosphere.
