We made it back from
our mission trip to Burma none the worse for ware. We look forward to
our 7th trip to Burma next January. This time we take friends and
supporters of our work. Let me know if you have an interest to see one
of the few places in this world hardly changed by western culture. Come visit me if I'm in your part of the country! See my SHOWS page for locations. |

Thank you for
visiting!! I hope this site will help make you familiar with my
work and me (as much as that is possible to
do in this electronic medium). I find that the web and e-mail are
fine for initial contacts, but by the time you have decided to have me
engrave for you, personal contact is a must, either by phone or face to
face at one of the many shows I do.
I have
been engraving, full time, since 1979, beginning with Scrimshaw
(The Art of Engraving on Ivory). I learned to make silver and
gold jewelry so as to mount my scrimshaw and soon began hand engraving
jewelry. I progressed into knife engraving
(which is still a large part of the work I do), perfecting my engraving
skills until the time I cut my first gun in 1988. Since then I have
engraved an average of 50 guns and dozens of custom knives a year. P.S. I am a member of
The Firearms Engravers Guild of America and work extensively
