Description
CRAIGHILL
For everyone who doesn’t just open champagne — they make it an occasion.
The Best Champagne Saber by Craighill is a gift for everyone who marks special moments in a special way. Designed in collaboration with sommelier André Hueston Mack, it combines a stainless steel blade with a tortoise acetate grip — precise, sculptural, and just as good to look at on its cork plinth as it is in action. The gift for weddings, graduations, milestone birthdays, or any occasion that deserves a bottle of champagne.
The gift for milestones
Champagne accompanies the best moments — and the Best Champagne Saber turns the opening itself into one of them. Sabrage, the technique where the blade cleanly removes the bottle’s neck with a single strike, is a form of ceremony: a brief, precise moment that sets the tone for whatever comes next. As a wedding gift, for a graduation, a milestone birthday, an anniversary, or a housewarming: a gift that stays in the memory — not just for the person receiving it.
Designed with sommelier André Hueston Mack
The Best Champagne Saber was created in collaboration with André Hueston Mack, one of the most respected sommeliers in the United States. The grip angle, stainless steel body, and tortoise acetate handle combine functional precision with a distinctly sculptural presence — classic Craighill. The included cork plinth keeps the saber ready to go — and puts it on display while it waits. Craighill backs every product with a lifetime guarantee: if it breaks, they fix it; if it fails, they replace it.

Frequently asked questions
Who is the champagne saber a good gift for?
For anyone who loves to celebrate and appreciates doing it in style: wine lovers, enthusiastic hosts, people with a taste for exceptional bar tools. Ideal for weddings, graduations, milestone birthdays, anniversaries, or housewarmings. And as a self-gift for anyone who believes special moments deserve the right instrument.
How does the sabrage technique work?
Remove the foil and wire cage (musélet). Hold the bottle at a 45° angle, seam facing up, opening pointing away from people. Run the saber flat along the bottle seam from the body toward the neck, then strike firmly where the seam meets the bottle collar. The neck and cork fly off cleanly. Pour immediately — the carbonation helps flush any fragments.
Is sabrage dangerous?
With the right tool and a little focus, sabrage is safe — but it does require attention. Use a cold bottle, always point the opening away from people and breakables, and give yourself enough space. The first attempt almost always works when approached calmly and deliberately.
What does the Craighill “For Life Guarantee” mean?
Craighill stands behind its products for life: if something breaks, they fix it; if it fails, they replace it. No time limits, no conditions — a guarantee that’s as considered as the products themselves.
How do I care for the saber?
Clean with a soft, slightly damp cloth, then dry thoroughly. Do not use alcohol, solvents, or harsh chemicals on the blade or handle. Store on the included cork plinth — it protects the blade and keeps the saber ready for next time.
