Austin Style H50

Austin Style MLT. 1.5 inch hand engraved sterling silver buckle with Austin style engraving. If not, Ever wondered how fine firearm makers achieve their incredible metal engraving? Unlike jewelry and western buckle engraving, which feature only surface engraving and embellishment; the depth and quality of firearm engraving comes from the actual removal of sub-surface material. This “scooping” effect allows the remaining surface area to be detailed and modeled. Think of the scooped areas as shadowing or visual support to the remaining surface or detail area. This multi-level approach to engraving allows for a richer more detailed surface.
