Knife Blade Stamps

[Treestalker]

Where does one obtain a knife blade logo stamp for forged blades? Is this done at cherry heat? George. Thanks.

Pretty sure this is where I got mine, which was pretty simple rfh in an oval. Give them a call. I use mine at cherry red heat.

There are a bunch of youtube videos on making your own touchmark too.

Some other makers cold stamp before heat treat using a heavy press. Others use an electro acid etch with stencils. I use nitric acid and free hand what I want on mine.

I do stock removal on annealed steel and cold stamp before the heat treat. On a forged blade- not sure. Is the forged blade too hard to cold stamp?

Thanks for the responses gentlemen. The site listed by BPD303 has a smaller logo custom stamp that is what I'm looking for. I forge blades and just need a stamp to use at red heat to mark my work. I've been away from the forge for too long, trying to get back. Thanks again. George.
