"Useless"?!?🤯😳
O.K. it may be for its intended purpose ... but only cuz (new full) corked bottles are darn near "impossible" to find ... at least in North America. (daRn twist caps 😡)
However, the "corkscrew" still works great for untying small diameter cording with over-tight knots, splinter removal, thorn removal from soles and bicycle tyres, keeping Fire Ant™ kindling (provided you have the budget for such), and SAK mini screwdrivers handy, precision scraping, and so on.
Just like the "package hook" on some VIC models such as the Huntsman and Fieldmaster, has multiple purposes. (good thing, since packages wrapped in butcher paper secured with butcher's string is a touch rarer than bluegill teeth ... again, at least in North America.)
For example, the "package hook" can hold several disposable plastic shopping bags. When used in conjunction with the split ring, it secures a "T" shank jigsaw blade for when the standard SAK wood saw is the wrong tool - need saw to sheet metal (includes copper, brass, German Silver, bronze, and aluminum sheets), and copper or black iron pipe/tubes, etc. or a longer wood saw blade is needed.

Honestly, the only "worthless" SAK tool I've discovered is the standard no grip "tweezers" ... tho a small piece of 220 or 320 grit SiC wet or dry sandpaper super glued to the inside of the tweezers gives them enough grip to hold onto something. 😁👍
