I had a snipe bid placed on an archemedian wormed henshall the other day, and as luck would have I snagged the piece for a very fair price. the description explained that there were no maker’s marks on the item, and the was some cracking to the handle. when it arrived, there was indeed some cracking to the handle, however, on the top of the henshall button, it reads, "TOM SCATCHERD" Who is Tom…? And, does he want his corkscrew back. A really neat piece! Pictures to be posted soon….
I’m interested in that item because my mom’s maiden name was Scatcherd.

Hi Mike,
Thanks for the comment. The Scatcherd corkscrew was traded away some time ago. Sorry about that
