Know any good scrimshawers? That a word?

[DGG]

I'm looking for a really good artist to scrimshaw an ivory handle custom auto.

Thanks, have a great day!

www.scrimshander.com. Bob Hergerter, I have a F/B scrimmed by him, it is very fine, realistic, detailed work. :thumbup:

And, as you might already have guessed from that link C Ben provided, the correct term for one who carves scrimshaw is "scrimshander."

There is a lady in Alaska named Heidi Robichaud. She is the best I have ever seen. Lives in Gustavus Alaska.

There are many excellent scrimshanders. Here is a link to knifelinksportal. http://www.knifelinksportal.com/ . Then click "all sorts of knifelinks" and you'll find a bunch of them under "Scrimshaw". Besides that I have two scrimmed knives. One by Viveca Sahlin of Sweden and one by Geatan Beauchamp of Canada and they are great. At the moment I'm planning to let Gay Williams scrim me a Bowie http://www.scrimbygarbo.com/ . Have fun selecting one.
