"This was a quick trial I did just to see....No real programming was done with this. Just a quick photo from my phone onto the app for the laser and then burned away. "

"I recently purchased a dual diode laser, the Atomstak Pro10 (10W output power). I'm hoping to transition to engraving on knife handles and even on a blade if I can get the settings dialed in."

"I recently got a CRKT Squid as a beater EDC knife. Well, I seem to have a hard time leaving much of anything alone..
So I laser marked a little graphic of Jörmungandr (the midgard serpent) on one side of the knife."

Hi Derek - welcome to iKC! Good looking engraving work. I just might have to send you some pieces.
So spill the beans...how did you come to have three Ames M1860 USN Cutlasses? With scabbards no less? Awesome!!! I have one dated 1862, but without its scabbard, unfortunately. I obtained mine back in 1978 before collecting such items became all rage.
Anyway - I've enjoyed your photos - thanks for sharing them!
