My cowboy wood carving of Bucktooth Bart wasn’t born a hero—he was whittled into one.
Legend says Bart could out-grin the desert sun and out-talk a rattlesnake. His charm was so big that even the tumbleweeds stopped rolling to listen.
This one-of-a-kind cowboy wood carving captures Bart mid-chuckle, proudly showing off those famous teeth that earned him his nickname. Hand-carved from basswood, every line and cut celebrates the humor and grit of the Old West.
Whether he’s sitting on your desk, shelf, or mantel, Bucktooth Bart brings a smile and a touch of frontier mischief to any room.
Each piece is hand-finished, sealed for longevity, and signed by the maker—a little piece of Western folklore to keep or gift.
