    Engraving slipjoint shields

    All the materials you list are quite durable, that includes the shell. Micarta is material soaked and pressed in resin, usually paper, linen or canvas, also very strong. Good luck with your endeavor.

    Engraving slipjoint shields

    I have never had a problem with engraving the sheilds nor have I heard of any problems from other knife engravers. However if for some reason it did pop loose, just superglue the shield to a plate of steel, finish the engraving and the maker can just epoxy it back in when you send it back.

    Cracking on 18K red gold wire while rolling.

    I make my own red wire and sheet in various karats. The more copper in the alloy the more often you need to anneal to avoid cracking, which as stated is the result of work hardening.

    John Rohner’s collection of chasing hammer heads

    If the power company would accept honor as payment then perhaps I would engrave for honor :) but no I only engrave for money. Jerry Fisher built the hammer, and being I engrave many of Jerry's guns, John asked me to do the engraving. It was a good intro though, I never really talked with John...
