Initials and names
The classic, and the most requested. A few characters on the blade or bolster personalise a piece without weighing it down.
Engraving workshop
Engravingthe blade
A name, a date, a few words, a company logo. Engraving turns a good knife into someone's knife, and that is often what makes the difference for a gift.
What gets engraved
On the blade or the handle
Engraving is done at the workshop, to order: a first name, a logo, a signature or a particular motif, on knives made here as well as on a piece you bring in. It can be worked from a file you supply, in a format suited to engraving.
Dedication and date
A line for a birthday, a retirement, a wedding. The text is set before engraving and agreed with you.
Company logo
For corporate gifts and short runs. The logo is taken from a vector file, or redrawn if you do not have one.
Patterns and decoration
Borders, motifs taken from a fabric, series marking. This is where engraving meets the workshop's drawing work.
Typefaces

A plate of engraved samples can be seen at the workshop: it is the best way to judge how the lettering really sits on steel, which a screen never quite conveys.
How it works
Three steps
- 01
Text and lettering
You give the exact wording and where you want it. We choose the typeface together, or use the default one if you would rather not think about it.
- 02
Setting it out
The text is set and positioned on the piece, to scale. You approve it before the machine touches the steel: engraving cannot be undone.
- 03
Engraving
Engraving, inspection, and restoring the finish around the lettering where needed.
