Another interesting knocker, which is certainly over-the-top.
If I had a door I was allowed to screw things into, I'd totally buy this one:

It's sold through novica's ebay store, which is national geographic's service for selling direct to international artists.
The house I moved into middle school had a lady's hand for a knocker, complete with ring and frilly sleeve. We got rid of it because we thought it was too creepy, but nowadays I wish I had kept it!
This ( http://ny-image2.etsy.com/il_430xN.65971178.jpg ) is the knocker I have on my door. When I first had it put up, I was expecting people to think it was weird, but it seems I'm the only one I know who finds a door knocker in the shape of an ear of corn unusual at all. Go figure.
I really think the sick lady and her tongue are so cool! So jealous of the person who gets to have her on their front door!
nice knockers ! :) thanks for the links , i was going to go for a brass lion knocker until i found this page.. i ended up with a Bulls head knocker from Hadley Reclaimed, its on their Cast Iron Door Knockers Page.
Done the trick nicely and very unusual !
