Magnetic Bottle Openers

$35

This bottle opener works great! After extensive research, I built this opener for the serious aficionado. The cast aluminum opener is built to outlast most heavy beer drinkers and the leather pouch efficiently and accurately catches the caps. The bottom snap allows for quick and easy dumping of caps all at once. The wood backing on these is Western Juniper salvaged from a firewood pile. I can also use Barnwood, Oak, Black Walnut, Hickory, or several others reclaimed from flooring. With super strong magnets on the back, it looks like a magic trick. However, you only see the real magic when you use it. These things work beautifully! Also, the contrast of wood attached to metal gives a unique look that is very aesthetically pleasing. The leather can be laser engraved with almost anything you like with really nice results.
