Pricing depends not on the material I cut, whether stainless steel, brass, blue steel, etc., but on the amount of detail, background, and coverage. Most people find my prices very reasonable with the average gun I cut at only $1000- $1500. Nimschke, and is now an exceptional style for the guns of the cowboy shooter. My work reflects the great engravers of the mid to late 1800’s, such as L.D. I have included in my Gallery of Guns photos of Revolvers, Semi Auto Pistols, Bolt Action Rifles and Floor Plates, Shotguns, and several pages of photos of Lever Action Rifles and Single Action Revolvers used in Old West Shooting which has become, in the last few years, very popular and a focus of much of my work and style. Since then I have engraved an average of 50 guns and dozens of custom knives a year. 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. I learned to make silver and gold jewelry so as to mount my scrimshaw and soon began hand engraving jewelry. I have been engraving, full time, since 1979, beginning with Scrimshaw (The Art of Engraving on Ivory). 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. 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).
