Project

Casting real crocodile teeth into a resin handle and creating a classic Bowie style work of art.

The details

I collaborated with a local leatherworker (and experienced croc wrangler) to create this one off blade. I'd never cast resin before, so it took as long to plan and work out the process as it did to create the handle. For a first attempt, it came out great. The resin handle holds real croc teeth, and fitted to a large classic Bowie style blade, it's an impressive piece. Combined with the beautiful black croc leather sheath, it's a real conversation starter. Currently, it is on hold for an overseas buyer, as we workout the best way to get it to him!
