I just keep a back up cardboard box of wine rather than a back up cork screw.
I don't have to do that because:
Place I buy my 'box' is 1.5 mi away I can feel when it has about 2 days before empty

i don't worry about corkscrews. Have NOT used one in years. Sheapo wine for me. Screw cap or cardboard multi-liter tappers. When I was living in Montreal, the wine boxes were the "drink of choice! We called them "Birdie" because there was a bird on the box. Creative right?!

And the shoe trick works too and you don't realy have to use a shoe or drink the wine out of the shoe you know! All ll you have to do is tap the bottom of the bottle hard even by using your hand untill you drive the cork half way out. It also works if you push the cork in and all you need is a pencil. But best would be to have a samurai sword so you can cut the top of the bottle off with one swing . For the move to be perfected you will need a lot of wine so it's just a win-win right?
