Is there any sort of tradition to this ? Do most horn makers use thier initials ? Choose a symbol ? Or what? Just wanted to ask basically is there a norm or simply to each his own.

I'm not a horner, but I always put my maker's mark on the leather items that I make.

If I engrave the horn I sign it and date it. Customers look for that. I also have a design I do in the pegs which I do on all horns.

Scrimshawed or engraved, this is what I use in various levels of detail. Kind of a cryptic form of my last name.

I like Randy Heddon's touchmark. An Indian with a crow perched on his head. On my F&I horn that he built,Randy put it in wild Indian territory...of the day.
