Hi everyone,
I live in Holland and I'm in the process of having made to my specifications an Puuko-ich style outdoor knife with a 4.3" blade and 4.3" grip contructed of 5/32" Talonite with a full tapered tang.
The man making it for me is a newcomer in the field of knifemaking and he still doesn't mark his blades with his initials.
I would like the blade "initialized" and promissed to help him find an affordable way of doing this.
Any help is welcome on the subject.
I don't care for scratched in initials
or hammered in ones.
It needs to be nice and simple and affordable.
If you know of someone who could mark a blade for a reasonable amount of money please let me know.
In the past I fooled around with FeCl3 and printplate "photospray" but Talonite doesn't really have Fe so it probably won't work.
Lets hear it please,
Bagheera
