A question for Halberds, maker's marks

Post by Zweihammer »

Halberds, I copied down the information you posted on a maker's mark you purchased. My question is how well has it held up, was it a good investment? It seemed crisp in your first picture but I have seen some numberstamps loose thier edge quickly and become blurry and others that have chipped and flaked. Thanks for the information.
Cheers, Erick D.

The stamp is of the highest quality. Mine has some very sharp detail and crisp edges.

I have played with it a lot and there are no signs of wear.

Best of luck;

The longest length; from tip of the halberd to the end of the shaft is .59"

The design will fit in a 5/8" circle.

I have heard that 1/2" is a good size.
It will work on curved pieces better.

Happy stamping;

Halberds
