Carnotaurus — Tooth
A thin blade from a fast-striking jaw.
This three-inch cast reproduces a single recurved tooth, its edges finely serrated and its blade narrow, suited to the rapid slashing bites this predator is thought to have favoured over brute crushing force. Slighter than the heavy daggers of larger tyrannosaurs, it carries the precision of a swift hunter. In the hand or under glass, it reads as a quiet study in the economy of a predator.
The serrations and enamel ridges are hand-finished to hold their detail under close inspection.
Carnotaurus lived in what is now Argentina during the Late Cretaceous.
Its teeth were blade-like and serrated, consistent with a relatively weak but quick bite used for slashing rather than bone-crushing.
Length estimates place it at roughly eight metres, among the larger abelisaurid predators.
