Where can I get a stamp made so that I can put my initials on blades?  I tried etching, but didn't like it as much as I thought I would. 
Thanks for your input.

				Try  www.riversidemachine.net, (http://www.riversidemachine.net,)  I think they make them. I bought mine in cal.
			
			
			
				If you go with a stamp you may want to consider bulding a press.  Pretty simple machine with a 2 ton hydro jack.  If you do not get your 1st hammer strike perfect the stamp is tough to get right.  Do a little Bing or Google search.  There are a few out there making them.
