Hello
I havent been around here in awhile, so I thought I would post some recent work. I just finished these up this week. Silver and bronze overlaid Spyderco and Byrd knife. All hand cut, hand engraved. Any comments good or bad welcome. Thanks for looking.

Wonderful work. I have a friend, Roger Bliele who hand engraves and I just marvel when he shows me "how easy" it is. I sometimes visit the Hand Engraving Forum to see what's new and am astounded by their work. I have a sterling silver Zippo lighter that was hand engraved by Joseph (his legal full name). Joseph was master engraver and restorer for Winchester Repeating Arms Co. and when he retired his tool went to the Cody Museum. But back to your work - I love it.

Thanks fellows, I appreciate the kind words. These do take a little time to make. I started engraving with a microscope and that has slowed me up, but I am pleased with the engraving I am able to do now. Amazing what happens when you can see well.
