Images tooled into the custom built sheath include the three sisters (corn, bean and squash) and an eagle above a pine tree, the tree of life. The roots represent the four directions and below is a war club. Elk tusks are inlayed and exposed on both sides of the handle so they may be felt, and are held against the tang by the buffalo berry wood handle.

Red and black liners, between the tang and brass guard, enhance the grain and patterns in the wood handle. File work on the back of the blade represents the pine tree made up of the three sisters, four directions and the branches of the tree of life.

Howling wolf is etched onto the blade.

This knife handle maintains the natural shape, size and colour of the whale's tooth. It is split and mounted with stainless steel pins. Ebony is used for end caps. A whaling ship is scrimshawed into the handle.

File work on the back of the blade represents the waves of the ocean. Etching on the blade represents a killer whale moving alongside icebergs. Whale image is tooled into the custom built sheath.

The berry picker was traditionally made from buffalo horn and used by Natives, .

Today farmers/ranchers raise buffalo as livestock. One such person from the Swift Current area, cuts the horns off the buffalo because they are pointed and the animals can harm one another when fighting. The horn then grows back as a rounded stump. At the end of the stump is scar tissue, which is what has created the colouration at the end of the berry picker.

The inlay represents the sacred white buffalo and has been made from a buffalo leg bone. The detail has been scrimshawed into the bone while the native grasses and buffalo beans have been scrimshawed into the horn.

The lace is cut from tanned buffalo hide and the feathers are buffalo feathers... taken from a magpie.

You proceed by turning the berry picker upside down and placing the fingers, which are cut into the horn, under a cluster of saskatoons or chokecherries and then tickling the berries until they fall into the horn. The berries can then be dumped into a pail or tipped into your mouth.

The lace, which has been cut from buffalo hide, has the same properties as buckskin which will dry soft after becoming wet. The lace can be used to attach the berry picker to your wrist so that you can let it go without losing it while you climb to the top of the tree to get those hard-to-reach berries. While up there, you can use the feathers as camouflage to hide from the berries so they don't see you coming. The feathers can also be used to swat away flies, etc., and slow your descent should you fall from the tree, and upon picking yourself up, they can be used to brush off the dust.
