This sculptured knife handle is a signed orginal by D.j.w. Kelsey. I am a self-taught artist and sculptor with 35 years experience in mixed mediums. All the pieces I create are one of a kind, carved with a dremel or a foredom, with dental bits and burrs. Antlers used are moose,elk or deer; generally sheds, but occasional I use purchased non-sheds. I have recently started to carve in warthog, hippo and mammoth ivory that I have purchase on ebay. I was a 911- dispatcher for years and began carving for its therapeutic value. I do custom pieces upon request so please feel free to e-mail me. I carve sculptures, knife handles and make carved jewelry. Feel free to check out my feedback. This corkscrew has an ivory handle of 3D eagle carved from a warthog ivory tooth. This piece has great natural patina from the tooth to enhance the character of the handle. The hardwood end cap is zericote hardwood adding a striking contrast and artistic element to this corkscrew.

The actual worm screw is stainless steel; as read more
