This robust railroad spike bottle opener could’ve very well been part of an American railroad.

Maker Scott Fischer teamed up with a local steel factory in Itaska, Illinois to create a design that replicates conventional railroad spikes.

This heavy, statement-making tool is easy to get a handle on. Each one has an industrial-looking stamp that signals its batch and a sleek leather lanyard to give you a better grip.


As a Coast Guard member, Scott was transferred from Key West to Chicago. In an attempt to escape the cold and keep busy, he started working with reclaimed materials in his garage. Every so often he’d crack open a beer with a rusty railroad spike—this was his first unintentional prototype.

The hefty-but-practical design is a nod to America’s history and a conversation starter all in one.
