Thread: Looking for an easy way to etch a mark

I'm looking for an easy and convenient way to etch my mark into knives and razors. Currently I use a dremel or a chisel to manually create my mark. While this rustic look can be excused for makers marks, I have a project coming up which is in need of etching some text onto the blade. And that I would like to look more stylish.

Any tips about what would be a good solution?

When Robert Williams was discussing doing the etched logo for the SRP limited edition he's been making he told me that he would design a font and that he would then send it to an establishment that would make a 'mask' or template that he would use to create the acid etching ......... IIRC ........ you might shoot him a PM and ask him about it.

If you search on YouTube you can find videos for DIY etching. Everything from nail polish and car battery chargers to professional stencils and commercial etchers.
