Don't know what to get your friends this holiday? Well, if they drink at all (or even if they don't, but love those Cokes in the old-school bottles), they could probably use one of these bottle openers. I have one, but it seems that whenever I have a hankering for a cold one, I can never find the darn thing. Plus, using one of these beautiful, design-y bottle openers will make popping the top off your favorite beverage that much more satisfying.

We have a spanner with one side of the head grinded off.... makes for a great conversation piece in our slightly industrial kitchen!
I have the Wobble Bobble Bottle Opener by Kikkerland. Amazon Permalink: http://amzn.com/B000GH2UKU It is fun to have out and easy to find with the bright colors.
These are all absolutely gorgeous (#2 especially), but I can't really justify spending $40 on a bottle opener when there's a billion things around the house that can already do that job.
Although #7 looks like it'd be a nice addition to a keychain, in addition to being a bottle opener, so I might trick myself into thinking it's worth it.
AT you seriously saved me. My boyfriend just asked for a nice bottle opener for x-mas an 90% of bottle openers are tacky
My husband keep talking about how much he wants the Keysquare:

He's seriously obsessed. It's a bottle opener and holds your keys.
I love #9.

look if they aren't on the fridge no one can ever find them
I have a silver dolphin bottle opener inherited from my grandmother. It sits in our kitchen windowsill and is one of my favorite possessions.
I bought this cute bottle opener at Anthropologie (http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/product/shopsale-dining/25798000.jsp) that looks like a walrus and I'm happy to just leave sitting on my black table. So far I've tried to open to two bottles and so far I've pulled off the cap AND broken the top off of two bottles. I've been resorting to a normal, boring bottle opener. :(
I'm looking for a cool wall mount one beyond the plain silver ones I see on Amazon - anyone have a source?
