Abstract We study wild embeddings of S 1 in S n which are tame in a sense introduced by Quinn. We show that if π is a finitely presented group with H 1(π)=H 2(π)=0, then any finiteness obstruction σ ∈ K 0(ℤπ) can be realized on the complement of such an embedded S 1. We also realize trivially symmetric K −1(ℤπ) obstructions on the complements of such embeddings. For trivially symmetric σ, the embeddings constructed are shown to be isotopy homogeneous.
