Gives it that authentic hand made look instead of some boring factory knife.  Nice knife!

I was wondering where you got your stamp and what size is the lettering.

like i said, i can't do more than one thing at a time, i've been working on 6 blades at once and thats why i made a mistake, all other ones are put on the shelf for now, and will finsh one at time, my brother said it did not matter, the signature on the bow he made for me was alittle crooked to
thanks dana

i got my stamp at  www.infinitystamps.com. (http://www.infinitystamps.com.)  as far as the size i'm not sure maybe 3/16, it's 3/4 inches wide, and cost about 170. but there is alot of stamps makers every where. look them up on the web.
thanks dana

Looks nice!
Maybe someone can chime in here on their trick to get the stamp straight?
I just check several times before whacking it.
