I did this about a year ago. I used a Gravermax G8 with 120 degree graver. The image was printed off a laser jet printer and transferred with acetone. I'm still trying to get good at doing this, as it doesn't produce optimal results; I get too much image bleeding in some places. The background was going to be stippled, but I quickly found out how tedious and time consuming that was so I used a carbide ball bur. This plate went on my wallet for a little while. I swapped wallets but have the plate laying around. If any of you are on Jurgen Maertz's facebook group you might have already seen this image. Wish I spent more time engraving, as I've been putting it off lately.

Is that a Ridge wallet?

It is one of the minimalist wallets akin to the Ridge, but a different maker.
