Various examples of engraving from over the years.

I engrave traditionally with a graving tool. The technique is ancient and I will continue to endeavour to maintain tradition at all times.

Please note that I do not use any jigs, patterns, printing blocks or clichés.All engraving is drawn first and guaranteed unique. All works carried out is signed when the object is completed. Every knife is numbered and comes with a certificate with the same number.

My first 1911. Yes the rear of the slide is a copy of someone else's work but I liked it so much. The rest came out of my head, so please let me know what I can do better. Tough to do a lot of shading in the allotted time period on the piece.

This is the rifle we just finished, the barrel is cut-rifled in England, .50 caliber, seven lands and grooves, 34 inches. The stock is walnut, Anke Brandt has engraved the rifle. More pics can be seen at http://trollstova.no, a story of how the rifle was built will appear soon. Hawken, the mountain man's choice...

This was a commission for a pair of 1873 WInchester rifles. The pattern is L.D. Nimschke from the "Aldridge" rifle. The receivers were pretty pitted but engraving them probably helped preserve these rifles. The steel was a dream to cut. Please post critique or comments.
