Knife engraving help.

[peej]

Have been browsing this cantina for a few days, but this is my first post.
Seems like peeps here know about Knives.
Any one suggest me the tools for engraving my knives.
I did internet search and couldnot find any resaonably priced engraving tools

There are a few who know engraving here....but you'd be better served posting your question in ShopTalk:

If you are going to use non powered tools, you will need-

Chasing hammer or light wooden mallet
Tool handles (you can make from wood yourself if need be)
gravers
sharpening stones
magnification(optional)
vise to hold the work

Check out rio grande and brownells.

Take care,

Tom
