1 FOX KNIVES CHAMPAGNE SABER<br />
The tradition of opening a Champagne bottle<br />
with a saber was born in the Napoleonic<br />
era. The “sabrage” with the Briquet saber<br />
was founded in 1812 by the general himself<br />
after winning a battle. This unique custom<br />
has survived to this day, and not only in<br />
France. It is a special highlight at any festive<br />
occasion. When done correctly, it generally<br />
works without issue.<br />
After the wire basket is removed from the<br />
cork, one drives the blade of the saber along<br />
the bottleneck and onto the thickening of<br />
the neck below the bottle head. The whole<br />
bottle head comes off with a bang and the<br />
Champagne flows out. Any resulting glass<br />
fragments fly forward, propelled by the<br />
pressure. The torn off bottle head with the<br />
cork will be labeled with the date and will<br />
then serve as a reminder of the celebration<br />
or as a talisman. True to the original, the<br />
especially high quality Champagne Saber by<br />
Fox is manufactured in the famous cutlery<br />
workshop in Maniago, Italy.<br />
The blade is made of corrosion resistant<br />
T5MOV stainless steel. The sturdy handle<br />
is adorned with an intricate, elegant design.<br />
This Champagne Saber is certainly ready<br />
for any challenges at celebrations. Comes<br />
complete with an elegant wooden box and<br />
a decorative stand. Overall length 53 cm.<br />
Blade length 40 cm.<br />
