A combination utensil has a one-piece plastic body with a bottle-cap-removing ring and an elongated bottle stopper projecting substantially radially outwardly from the ring. The ring has inclined end faces tapering toward the stopper and an opening positioned eccentrically thereof and extending therethrough between the end faces and defined by a frusticonical wall, the opening being chamfered at the small-diameter end. A metal plate is insert-molded in the stopper and has a lip which projects radially into the ring opening at the small-diameter end thereof. The inner and outer surfaces of the ring, except for the chamfer, are covered with a frictional cushioning material which defines circumferentially spaced ribs projecting radially inwardly of the frustoconical wall. The stopper is tapered toward a small-diameter distal end and its mid portion is surrounded with a frictional cushioning sheath having radially outwardly projecting circumferential ribs spaced axially of the stopper.
