"After searching world wide (and I mean it!!!) I finally found what I was looking for at home in New Zealand. Anyone who works in a busy bar will know how much difference the right tools can make and the Hand Jive Opener is truly amazing. The unique shape is comfortable to hold and is very effective. It looks professional and gives me the edge. Highly recommended."

"Having worked in bars for over 5 years and seen all types of bottle openers the Hand Jive bar blade is by far the best quality and quickest bottle opener on the market today and is my bar blade of choice"

“What can I say about Handjive openers?  They are the Cadillac of speed openers.  They possess all of the qualities I could possibly look for in a bottle popper.  First of all, the unique shape fits the contours of your hand no matter how you hold it, from old school traditional opening to the advanced flair gun slinging techniques with a Holster, and a perfect fit, I might add. The spinner ring inside makes flairing faster and easier and you won't get a callous on your hand from spinning it all day on your finger.  Finally, and most important, these things are built like Tanks, they can take all the abuse you can dish out without denting or marring the finish.  The only thing harder about about how tough these are built is choosing which color to get.  Each finish is as distinct as the person who owns it.  Me, I own 3 right now...The Original Industrial Finish, Antique Copper, and I am now a new owner of the Limited Edition "Service with Attitude" Black Handjive.  Thank you Handjive, you make my job bartending more intoxicating!”

Very truly yours,

“When it comes to bar blades there is no competition.  The hand jive is the best. It is contoured to your hand, more sturdy, and a whole lot better looking than the conventional bar blade.  I have been using my hand jive for over 2 years and I will not use another bar blade.  It has made me a faster bartender and has made me more money.”

"I stumbled across the Hand Jive whilst stocking up my new bar, and itLooked so cool that I snapped one up on the spot. When it arrived I was thrilled to see that I had landed a gem of a piece of kit. The weight, the look, the feel and it's utility make it the complete item. It also ages superbly, not diminishing but if possible, improving!! I think the hand-jive is a fantastic item, I've now bought more to reward my long-serving staff and when they get the accolade of a Hand Jive their faces are priceless, they know they've made it as a quality bartender!"

“I had first heard about handjive a few months back and had asked around about them. Every single person I asked in the hospitality industry had good words to say about the unrivalled  quality of the product and also the unique designs. The thing that appealed to me the most was that they are designed by people who know the in and outs of what's required behind the bar.. bartenders! I was most impressed by the service that was provided to me also. Living overseas from the company, i was a bit wary that it may take a long time to get in contact and actually place the order and receive it, but was very excited to hear it was all arranged in record speed over the internet.  Will always let people know where i get my bar blades from now!  Thanks  Handjive!”

Special mention needs to be made for Russ Hornbeck and his crew from St Louis, MO. Mr Hornbeck was nice enough to send us a video showing a few of the ways he and his colleagues have been able to utilize our products and truly set them apart from other bartenders. Its great to see that there exists in all corners of the world, bartenders that show such initiative and flair. It also displays an alarming trend that many need to be medicated.
