The word sabrage is French for "saber" and identifies the technique used to open bottles of sparkling wine since the Napoleonic era when, members of the army of officers, celebrated battles won. This practice has been refined over time, which is precisely why Fox Knives - Deu Cigni has designed sabers to make this ceremonial an exciting moment as well as making a true collector's item. The Sommelier's sabre includes its wooden display case.
