Canes Venatici, The Hunting Dogs are chasing after Ursa Major (The Great Bear) in a chase around the pole. They are held on leashes by Boötes, The Bear Drive. They are in the Northern Hemisphere under the Big Dipper's handle.
There are two corkscrew knives representing Canes Venatici. Both silver handled knives picture hunting dogs. The example with the cap lifter was made in Norway and the other in Solingen, Germany.
