The Bottle-Shaped Case
The case is the reason most people buy this set. Shaped like a wine bottle and wrapped in a gift-pattern sleeve, it disguises the tools until the recipient opens it, which makes for a satisfying unwrapping. Recipients have loved that everything was hidden in a bottle, and more than one owner says it looks almost like a real bottle of wine. After the tools come out, it keeps working as storage and as a decoration on a shelf, wine rack or home bar. The trade-off is weight and material. The case is light, and one owner found it was a plastic sheet wrapped around a bottle shape rather than anything heavier, so it is decorative packaging rather than a sturdy box. At 13.2 by 3.3 inches it is compact, easy to wrap and slips into a gift basket, which is why it also turns up in raffle baskets and as a party giveaway.
