After serving in the Marines and special operations, Travis pursued higher learning. Here, his drive for adventure and deep curiosity continue to surface.

To Share the Thrill of the Deep.


100% authentic and beautifully unaltered. Each megatooth here was naturally fossilized and hand-recovered by yours truly.

 

The secret to maintaining astonishing natural features is in the process: 

  1. Carefully collected and kept strictly in fresh water (no chemicals).
  2. Ocean deposits removed with gentle brushing and precision.
  3. Natural oils applied to combat dryness and revitalize. 

  • No restoration, false polish or artificial repair.


Each listing includes bright photos and descriptions—no fluff. 


Pictures aren't doctored or changed. 

  • I head to the beach for pictures to show megateeth in natural light. 
  • Shown on various objects or in the sand for a unique perspective.
  • Front, back and special features. Kind of cool:
    • The curved side we often show is actually the back of the tooth in its jaw (lingual side). 
    • The back/flat side is actually the outward-facing side of the shark's tooth (labial side). 

Dives and finds are carefully measured and recorded.

  • Incredible O. megalodon size estimations are based on the most recent model(s).
  • Depth gives awesome stratigraphic info about an area's rocks, minerals, and fossils.
  • Tooth IDs are straight from the dive log: e.g., 4870524 is a 4.87-inch megatooth found May, 2024 [112' deep].


Feature pieces are hand-made of solid burl wood. They have swirling grain, organic forms, and no two are ever alike. 


Carefully selected to match & complement the teeth. Mounted securely (yet always removable) using driftwood holds and clean, minimal hardware. 


Wood is naturally finished for the deepest possible glow. Elegant information plaques add to the story. 


Values reflect rarity. The biggest Megalodons were uncommon survivors.

  • Fossilization odds, growth challenges, and an unforgiving environment make their largest teeth exponentially scarce.
  • Based on size and condition: 
    • Size: measured in slant height: the longest line from tip to root.
    • Condition: full enamel, smooth root, visible bourlette, and intact tip.
    • Special features: unique coloring, serrations, and symmetry.
    • Completeness: tip, bourlette, and all 3 points.
    • Art is priced 20% of the tooth it holds.
