How do you mark you horns
« on: March 25, 2010, 11:56:48 PM »
Guys,

How do you mark/sign your horns so that it is inconspicuous.    I know the HCH requires a mark, but it seems to me that it would stand out like a sore thumb on an un-engraved horn.

Thanks,

Mark

I use my trademark, the P with an arrow through it.  A good spot is on the underside as the horn is carried, at the junction to the throat.

I inlay a brass, copper, or sterling silver touch mark somewhere on the horn.
