Andy, what were you thinking about doing for the scrimshaw. I have been doing scrim for a few years, since 1979 to be exact. I've even tought classes before. Also, I am retired Air Force and was even stationed in Alaska. Scrim of walrus tusk can be harder than on elephant or mammoth ivory because of the density of it. Full scenes , both sides or just on the face side? I would do it at no charge as long as all of the proceeds to go to the memorial fund. Just need a notorized letter stating that the scrimshaw was done on the knife when completed. I think that I can find some sketches or photos of the war from that part of Alaska. I may even have some in one of my books from when I was there. Let me know if I can be of any help in this matter.
