I could parrot some phrase about "appreciation of the female form", but who would I be kidding? My favorite subject.

Be Sure to click on each picture in order to see the fine detail on each piece of Scrimshaw!

Fantasy #6 - A belt buckle with a familiar theme.
"In Dreams" - I did this for the Annual Scrimshaw contest in Kapaa, Hawaii.
"Cave of the Storm Nymphs" display piece. About 3 x 4 inches. The myth, of course, is that the Sirens' song calls the ships to the rocks, causing them to crash. In this piece some of the flotsam includes a treasure chest, and coins strewn about. There is also a book with the title "Micro-Scrimshaw" written on the spine. That's a little advertising that might be missed if I didn't point it out...	Island Girl - Scrimshaw of one of my favorite subjects on a Puma Knife
A glamorous pose on a knife by Dallas Christian.

Though you might have to find these in a used book store now, you may want to check out Tom Clancy's "Net Force" series novels - "Point of Impact" and "Cybernation". Written by Steve Perry, they feature a scrimshander named Bob Hergert. Just a coincidence?.....I don't think so.

Steve Perry, who commissioned pistol grips with Dirisha Zuri are featured on Page 1 in the Nudes section.

If you are interested in commissioning work or purchasing a piece pictured here, please send e-mail to the address listed.

To get an idea how much a commissioned project might cost, calculate the number of square inches of scrimshaw. Then figure a price of $150 -$200 per square inch. This assumes the model or design is ready or available. Exceptions to this pricing include miniature knives, which must be estimated individually. Cost of ivory is separate. Those who would like a quality knife for a moderate cost might consider the David Boye Prophet Companion. Finished knives with scrimshaw typically run between $600 and $800.
