Here’s a photo of a Walther I just finished. I enjoyed working on it- it was a lot of fun.

Thanks Steve!
It is stainless. It was very consistent – maybe slightly harder on the slide near the firing pin and a little softer on the front and back strap - but overall, it cut great. I wish I could get my hands on another one– it was a lot of fun to work with.

Great work Russ. I think its awesome that you and others here can take a firearm and engrave such details on them. Nothing like making something ordinary into something custom and extraordinary.
